Program Description

Event Details

Drum roll please!  Norwalk Symphony is excited to present the many sounds, sizes, and assortment of traditional and unusual percussion instruments.  Have you ever banged on a pot with a spoon?  Clapped together pieces of wood or metal?  Rung a bell?  You are a Percussionist!  Using our upcoming educational performance of Berlioz' "Symphonie fantastique" we see how The percussion part stands out  as a relatively early example of an ambitious and highly elaborate, active, even central part of the score, which adds to the work's overall impact. The program finishes with our Petting Zoo to create where you join the musicians to create a unique performance.
