The Santa Clarita Symphony presents “Animals Alive” Family Concert Saturday, April 5th at 5 p.m. at the Santa Clarita Performing Arts CenterEach Child To Receive Coloring BookThe 65-minute concert, designed to educate and entertain children, will feature Carnival of the Animals, French composer Camille Saint-Saëns' witty musical salute to feathers, fur, and fin." This zoological program features 14 different movements - each one a different animal - from the first movement of "March of the Royal Lion" through portraits of elephants, donkeys, and swans.
A special guest narrator will charm the young audience with the whimsical verses of Ogden Nash, as child actors (e.g. the animals) from the Santa Clarita School of Performing Arts bring the show to life. During all of this activity the symphony orchestra will demonstrate and explain to children how instruments are playing to characterize the different animals.
Each child in attendance will receive a special Carnival of the Animal Coloring book (courtesy of Union Bank of California) that includes an easy-to-follow listening guide, the musical theme (for the child to see and the parent, music teacher or child to play). The book also includes background on the music and the composer, a guide to the instruments, a glossary of terms, and of course crayons.
The program which also includes Greensleeves, Mozart Concerto No. 3, and Ernest Bloch Piano Concerto Grosso, will feature unique performances by featured virtuoso youth pianists Tyler Linahan and Alex Mansour.
