Join us for the 2024–2025 season of Once Upon and Orchestra! This free, public family concert series invites multigenerational families to join Louisville Orchestra ensembles for fun, interactive storytelling through music performances at every library branch across Metro Louisville. Prior to each performance, LO staff will lead a craft activity using recycled materials – and audience members can play their homemade instruments during the show! No RSVP is required, and reading the book before attending is always encouraged but not necessary!
The award-winning If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, is one of the most beloved children’s books of all time and has been reimagined as part of the LO’s Once Upon An Orchestra Series. This interpretation told by a woodwind quintet which features a clarinet, oboe, flute, bassoon and french horn is lively, upbeat and fun for the whole family. Score arranged/composed by 2023–24 LO Creators Corps composer, Alex Berko.
The series is made possible through funding from The Library Foundation with support from the Robert H. Reakirt Foundation Equities through the PNC Charitable Trusts Grant Review Committee.
