Symphony Visit


Today, TJ and myself visited the NC Symphony in Raleigh. They were offering a concert to parents and their kids that helps kids better understand the make-up of the orchestra and what the different sections of the symphony are. TJ also had the opportunity to make his own instrument just prior to the performance. There were different tables set up in the lobby where kids could make home-made instruments to keep. TJ made a percussion instrument. It was very enjoyable and TJ really liked it too. The homeschool group we are a part of (Classical Conversations) bought tickets together and met at the Memorial Auditorium for the event. It was narrated by David Hartman, who was if you remember, the former host of Good Morning America many years ago. I remember him back in the early 70s when I was in junior high. After the event we went to America's restaurant, MacDonalds and had lunch together.
