Inside the Orchestra for Families is an engaging 50-minute performance created to get families and children of all ages “inside the orchestra”. Using a 15-17 piece orchestra, the family concerts introduce the family and the community to the world of Inside the Orchestra. Our program is an experience like no other – families get to discover what it is to be truly inside the orchestra as they are seated on the floor and surrounded by our professional musicians. By incorporating contemporary music, we teach children that orchestral music is all around them and part of their everyday lives. By introducing classical music, we help them explore music they might never have heard before. By encouraging them to interact directly with the conductor and the musicians we show them that music is designed to be explored and enjoyed. By highlighting a child their age excelling musically, we inspire them to pick up an instrument and remind them that music is accessible. Each performance features an opera singer from Central City Opera as well as a modern dancer. Family concerts are free and open to the public, but we do ask that you donate if you can, to help us continue to bring free programming to the Denver community.
