Come along on a thrilling adventure exploring the brilliance of young heroes in classical music with Maestro Francesco.

Sarasate’s “Zigeunerweisen” showcases the awe-inspiring virtuosity of the exceptional Henry Miller.
Embark on a musical adventure with the whole family! Prokofiev's “Peter and the Wolf" ignites young imaginations as each animal character comes to life by the unique sounds of the orchestra. Hear the soaring strings chase the brave Peter, the sneaky clarinet stalks the cunning wolf, and the playful flute flits as the clever bird. “Peter and the Wolf” unlocks a lifelong love of classical music.
