Family Concert: Hit It!
As part of our Bridges to Music program, each year we present a free afternoon concert for children and families. These concerts feature engaging and interactive pieces written to help young people learn about the orchestra and the instruments, and children also have the opportunity to meet the musicians and see their instruments up close! Featuring 2024 Marilyn Mindell Piano Competition Winner Xinran Shi. This is a FREE event and will include special recitals by the winners of the Marilyn Mindell Piano Competition Junior Division 2024 (Chloe Ding, Andrew Lee, and Victoria Huang) at 2:15PM
