Big Ideas! Free Family Concert & Instrument Petting Zoo

Join for a creative morning of classical music exploring the place where imagination and ideas meet with works by Bach, Haydn, Piazzolla, Jessie Montgomery, and more. Afterward, kids can drum with the Chameleons and try out their instruments.

Where does music come from? Composers are inspired by many sources: stories, songs, people, places, spiders, coyotes, and even other music. Join us for a colorful morning of classical music exploring the creative muse and the place where imagination and ideas meet, with works by Bach, Haydn, Astor Piazzolla, Jessie Montgomery, and more. Afterward, kids can drum with the Chameleons and try violin, viola, cello, and double bass.
