Koncerts for Kids

February 3, 2012
Friday Morning at 9:30 & 11 AM

For the past decade, South Coast Symphony’s Koncerts for Kids, has performed for over 33,000 elementary students and their teachers from cities and communities throughout South Orange County. These live symphonic concerts are held annually in February during the school day. Students and teachers are bussed to and from their schools to the concerts completely free of charge.

Koncerts for Kids is a specifically designed multi-media program for fourth grade students incorporating both music and art. They experience music, performed by a large symphony orchestra, from a variety of genres including classical, jazz, opera, film scores from Hollywood and the music of Broadway.

Highlights of the concert have included an interactive music and art performance to the music of George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, and multi-media presentations from the film scores of composer John Williams. The students also have the opportunity to hear performances at each concert from two very talented young performers who have been chosen as award winners form the Symphony’s annual Young STARS of the Future Competition, which is open to aspiring young instrumental and vocal musicians who live in Orange County.
