Sixth to eighth grade student musicians performed at Saturday’s Young Persons’ Concert at Pick-Staiger Concert Hall in Evanston on March 9.The beauty and enjoyment of creating music can be experienced at any age and the Evanston Symphony Orchestra is helping to inspire the next generation of musicians right here at home.
“This concert is important to do because it not only brings classical music to a younger audience but provides an opportunity for School District 65 students to perform alongside Evanston Symphony Orchestra members on stage,” Eckerling said. “This program has fun music with stories as well as riveting rhythms to keep the audience entertained and culminates into the string-player students in District 65 joining the ESO on stage to make music together,” Eckerling said.
A special edition of the ESO’s KidNotes program was distributed at the concert, a publication that brings to life the composers and works in a language young people can understand, adding to the educational and entertainment value, organizers say. “There is just something magical about coming together to play with a community orchestra, about being part of a whole that is better than the sum of its parts,” Sachs said. “We want the kids to feel some of that magic too.”
