Texarkana Symphony Orchestra - concerts for students Wednesday January 16 at the Perot

STUDENT CONCERTS AT THE PEROT

Each January, the TSO performs two concerts especially for students. A special concert for Elementary grades is the perfect way to expose young music-lovers to the instrumental "families" of the orchestra in a live symphony performance. A second concert, complete with informative remarks from the Maestro, brings the classics to life for Middle and High School Students.
Program: The Story of Babar, the Little Elephant


January 16, 2013 - 9:30am and 12:30 pm

Pack your trunks! The Texarkana Symphony Orchestra invites you to Babar's coronation! Jean de Brunhoff's popular children's story of one little elephant's epic rise from rags to riches is eloquently set to music by Francis Poulenc, and expressively re-imagined with all the enthusiasm and pomp worthy of a royal gathering. Long live King Babar!
