NHSO Presents Family Concerts

The NHSO Family Concert Series offers children and their families a lively introduction to the orchestra and its music through child-friendly performances of familiar repertoire. The orchestra and some special guest performers bring music to life for young audiences in one-hour programs that include narration and visuals along with the music.

Purchase the series and save! Get all three concerts for the low price of $35/Adult, $30/Senior, and $10/Child. Call 203.865.0831 ext. 10 to share the gift of music with your kids.

Instrument Discovery Zone: A half hour before each concert children can go to an Instrument Discover Zone where they can meet the musicians and touch, toot, tickle and maybe even tease a tune out of orchestral instruments. Nothing piques curiosity like an opportunity to make a little music, and who knows, maybe there are a few budding virtuosos in our midst!
