Join us for a free family concert where music and storytelling collide! Through an engaging mix of classical and popular music, the Orange County Youth Symphony and narrator Kristi Brown Montesano will guide young listeners through the essential elements of storytelling while introducing the magical world of orchestral instruments.

Perfect for families with children ages 5-12, this 60-minute interactive concert shows how composers and authors use the same tools to capture our imagination—from setting the scene and introducing characters to building excitement and creating satisfying endings.

And make sure that you arrive early to explore our exciting pre-concert activities, including an interactive instrument experience, arts and crafts, and more!

Before attending the concert, take a look at the Philharmonic Society’s free virtual youth music education program the Digital Music Mobile to learn about the instruments of the orchestra!
