Happy Sunday Everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It seems like it just flew by.

Tonight I wanted to share about a special series of musical performances designed just for our kiddos. The Pacific Symphony has a series of five Saturday morning musical performances that introduces kiddos 5 to 11 to the wonderful world of classical music and they Symphony.

The  interactive concerts, led by Assistant Conductor Maxim Eshkenazy, are designed to be both educational and entertaining, present a broad range of musical styles, and teach the fundamentals of orchestral music. The 45 minutes shows are the perfect time for the kiddos and they really are the perfect opportunity to introduce the kiddos to a whole new world of music.

There are two time slots. One performance takes place at 1oAM and another at 11:30AM. The shows take place at Segerstrom Hall in Costa Mesa. One very special part of these performances is that included with your tickets is admission to the musical carnival. The musical carnival is a special pre or post concert performance(depending on your show time, 9AM for 10AM shows and 12:15 for the 11:30 shows). The Musical Carnival activities range from meeting Pacific Symphony musicians to arts and crafts. In addition, children can “test drive” a featured instrument at the instrument petting zoo.
