Join us for an afternoon of Polish and American classical music.  Children will hear the stories of composers and the historical background of four classical songs.  In this interactive performance, families will experience ways in which music illustrates the story, both vocal and instrumental through rhythmic patterns, dynamics, basic harmonies, and tempos.  Learn sections of the music and sing along!
