Description

The Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra presents “The Thrill of the Orchestra!”  They’ll do an investigation into how the orchestra evokes different types of emotions and plays in a variety of styles.  Then they’ll show how it all comes together using especially chosen pieces to demonstrate.  There will be an instrument "petting zoo" in the Meeting Room afterward.

This program is generously sponsored by the Friends of the George Memorial Library.
