Get Hands on Music with Salem Philharmonia
Salem Philharmonia presents A Family Concert: Meet the Orchestra featuring music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Felix Mendelssohn, Richard Wagner and more, 2 p.m. Saturday, December 2 and Sunday, December 3, at East Salem Community Center, 1850 45th Ave NE.
“These concerts are really special,” said Susan Friesen, Executive Director. “They’re geared for the whole family … familiar symphonic classics, but shorter than the selections in our usual concert format, with instrument demonstrations to get the younger crowd excited about instruments that particularly grab their attention.”
Before the concert, at 1:15 p.m. in the lobby, there will be an instrument ‘petting zoo’ giving kids an opportunity to see up close and try out some of the instruments found in an orchestra.
Tickets are $20 for adults. Youth through the age of 17 are always admitted free. For more info, visit salemphil.org
