Conductor (and Alum) Jason Seber has chosen music that features each section of the orchestra, with an overarching theme, “Piece by Piece: Putting Together the Orchestra,” culminating in Benjamin Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra. Join us early to partake in crafts and other fun musical activities!
