“Meet the Orchestral Family”  

What is an orchestra? How do the different families of instruments make sounds? Take a fun and enlightening journey through the world of the orchestra with this introduction to the families of instruments, musical styles, role of the conductor and more. Musicians from the La Jolla Symphony & Chorus will take students through the mechanics of the different families of instruments: winds, brass, strings and percussion, and will perform live-streamed demos. We’ll also introduce students to some of the great composers and master works, in this live and interactive session. Each session can be customized for grade and level/experience. When available, all student participants and their families will receive a complimentary link to an upcoming virtual production.
