We visited Kauffman Center for the 2018 Young People’s Concert: Composing a Story. This performance focused on how authors create stories with words, while composers create stories with music. Just like authors, composers use setting, mood, the dichotomy between hero and villain, and surprises to create an ending that can excite and surprise their audience.
The kids had a wonderful morning at the performance, and we look forward to attending the Symphony again soon!
