Free Family Concert & Tour of Orchestra
Sunday, August 9, 1:00 pm
Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium
Carolyn Kuan, conductor
[Galen Lemmon & Steve Hearn, percussion]
Once again, the adventure begins with the ever-popular “petting zoo-style” tour of the orchestra, when everyone gets to journey in and around the Civic Auditorium to see the different players of the orchestra, up-close and personal with their instruments. Then everyone returns to the theater for a full orchestra concert experience with Conductors Marin Alsop and Carolyn Kuan conducting two rollicking works that bring the Festival’s extraordinary principal percussionists, Galen Lemmon and Steve Hearn, into the spotlight! Always a mesmerizing experience for kids and their families, the Free Family Concert has nurtured a generation—now two—of kids who grow up hearing a world class orchestra perform world class music by living composers, right here in Santa Cruz!
(Tickets are Free and available at the Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium Box Office, in person beginning June 15.)
