Young People's Concert: Bach to the Future

Imagine it: You take your seat. The audience quiets. The orchestra tunes. The Maestro lifts his baton. And suddenly—GREAT SCOTT!—a stranger takes the stage! Millie Second, a great inventor from another time, has landed herself in the modern-day and she’s not quite sure how she got here, where she came from or how to get home. To top it all off, her time machine, The Chord Explorer, won’t start and her instruction manual is missing a few key pages. Only the musical minds of our maestro, musicians and audience can help refuel the broken machine and return our fearless inventor to her home era. But the journey won’t be without some tuneful twists and turns. From the Renaissance to the Roaring ’20s, from the space race to the gold rush, this melodic adventure will have you asking not “Where will we go next?” but “When?!”
This program is presented by the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra in partnership with Orange County Public Schools and performed for over 65,000 local public-school students annually.
