Classical music meets storytelling as members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra bring your favorite fables and fairy tales to life in the Music for the Very Young Concert Series. Parents of 3 to 8-year-olds may enjoy these interactive concerts with their little ones, who can engage with the actors and musicians as the story unfolds.

March to the beat of your own drum and join the parade in Carnival of the Animals. Saint-Saëns’ humorous musical suite animates lions, elephants, swans, kangaroos, and more in a 45-minute program, featuring members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra in a woodwind quintet, that will have littles hopping and roaring along.
