The Little Orchestra Society, now in its 61st season, performed its inaugural concert at The Town Hall on October 20, 1947, and has since been devoted to performing innovative concerts of classical music for both adults and children. In its 61 years, the Orchestra has given many important premieres and launched the careers of major musical talents in its Concerts for Adults. Under the direction of Dino Anagnost since 1979, The Little Orchestra Society has offered music education and concert programs that are dedicated to entertaining and educating New York Metropolitan Area children and families. The Orchestra’s programs include the Lolli-Pops™ for children ages 3-5, the Peabody Award-winning Happy Concerts for Young People for children ages 6-12, and the Concerts for Adults series, which includes Vivaldi’s Venice, and Cathedral Concerts-Great Music Under a Byzantine Dome.
