The Louisville Orchestra and the Louisville Free Public Library are proud to present the 2024-2025 season of Once Upon and Orchestra. Through this free, public family concert series, multigenerational families are invited to join Louisville Orchestra ensembles for fun, interactive storytelling through-music performances at every library branch across Metro Louisville.
Participants of all ages will enjoy a 30-minute music instrument making activity followed by an approximately 30-minute music program that weaves together storytelling adventures with creative music making. Prior to each performance, LO staff will lead a craft activity using recycled materials – and children can play their homemade instruments during the show!
This popular children’s book tells the story of a boy who gives a mouse a cookie, and its off to the races after that! The adventure comes full circle following the needy little mouse. This interpretation told by a woodwind quintet which features a clarinet, oboe, flute, bassoon and french horn is lively, upbeat and fun for the whole family.
