The Folsom Lake Symphony is hosting its annual family concert and musical instrument “petting zoo” event known as, Construction Zone: Musicians at Work this Saturday at the Harris Center for the Arts.
Explore music’s fascinating building blocks — the instruments, the people who play them and the various musical roadmaps. This captivating and engaging program is designed for all ages.
The post-concert instrument “petting zoo” will return bigger than ever with instrument stations in the lobby, Stage 2 and Stage 3. Children will have hands-on experience trying out various instruments of the orchestra guided by symphony members. String, wind, brass and percussion instruments will all be available for children to examine and play.
New this year, the audience will be treated to a performance by the talented winner of the symphony’s inaugural Young Artist Competition. Nathaniel Zhang, 16, will perform the Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3, movement 1, with the symphony.
The program begins at 11 a.m. Saturday, March 16, at Harris Center for the Arts on the Folsom Lake College campus located at 10 College Parkway in Folsom. For tickets and more information call (916) 608-6888 or visit HarrisCenter.net.
