Very Young People’s Concert for Schools: Brass Family
About This Event
At David Geffen Hall, Doug Fitch leads a Very Young People’s Concert for Schools focused on the brass family, joined by musicians from the New York Philharmonic and soprano Rebecca Young. Fitch, whose work moves between opera staging, drawing and theatrical design, treats performance as a total environment; here his visual approach frames a family-focused program that introduces young listeners to brass instruments alongside orchestral players.
