Bringing my modern Ms. Frizzle energy to Walt Disney Concert Hall, I will narrate the Phil’s wonderfully engaging program for young people and their families and friends. This Symphony for Youth program will highlight the woodwind section as well as the musical concepts of melody and pitch. Works include Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances from West Side Story, Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony, Gershwin’s  Rhapsody in Blue, Still’s 
“Afro-American” Symphony, Stravinsky’s Petrushka, and Riley’s In C.

I’m delighted to be collaborating again with script writer Callan Milani, who knows how to bring lessons to life. The performance will feature Dudamel Fellow Kinga Głowacka on the podium. Hope to see you there!
