Happy Concerts

Children (ages 6 to 12) discover how exciting classical music can be through dynamic audience interaction, engaging dialogue and other surprises in each performance. Classics such as Amahl and the Night Visitors (now a New York institution) and innovative new concerts have earned this series a strong base of loyal fans and the prestigious Peabody Award. It's no wonder the New York Times called Happy Concerts for Young People for Young People "Children's concerts to be marveled at."
