The Little Orchestra Society's 2011-2012 season includes a talented roster of Guest Conductors, a brand new family program celebrating music and dance of the Americas, the return of our original puppet and dance production of Prokofiev's Cinderella, and a new Lolli-Pops concert for 3-5 year olds that explores the rhythm and beat of New York City.  Join us as we embark on an exciting new path into the future!

Now in its 64th season, The Little Orchestra Society 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.
