RELAXED FAMILY CONCERT

Here, There, Everywhere

Sun Apr 7, 2024

Orchestra Hall

~1 hr

Join the Minnesota Orchestra as they fly around the world through music by composers from many different corners of the Earth. Starting here at home in the United States, we will hear movements from James Price Johnson’s atmospheric Harlem Symphony. And then, to the Andes mountains in Peru with Gabriela Lena Frank’s Leyendas: An Andean Walkabout and across the pond to Europe with music by Brahms and Shostkaovich. We will also make a stop in Iran to hear Iman Habibi's Every Tree Speaks.

 
Our Relaxed Family Concerts are designed for audiences of all ages, including individuals with autism or sensory sensitivities. Each concert takes place in an inclusive environment where audience members are welcome to be who they are and enjoy music together with family and friends.

Save up to 15% when you create your own ticket package of three or more concerts.

A Few Things to Know

  1. Here, There, Everywhere will feature a variety of music—some soft and some loud—because we know that different audience members like different levels of sound. Review our tip sheet (coming soon) to read about quiet spaces, noise-canceling headphones and other options which are available for tailoring the concert experience to fit your family's preferences.
  2. Come early to participate in lobby activities, including opportunities to try instruments, engage in creative movement, make art, learn more about the program and meet Minnesota Orchestra musicians.
  3. Prepare for the concert experience with our playlist, lobby map, pre-visit story and other materials. Scroll down this page for those resources!
