Music Director & Conductor
The WSSO has developed over a dozen original, scripted "concert dramas". This season we're offered a special production for schools in addition to our traditional family concert.
"Kaleidoscope of Sound" teaches young listeners about musical texture, featuring diverse orchestral music composed by Hungarian Franz Liszt, Frenchman Léo Delibes, and Mexican-American José Luis Elizondo.
Multiple senses were involved in this engaging production! Each student received a mini-lighting booth to help create an audience-generated kaleidoscope while hearing beautiful symphonic music.
