Halloween Children's Concert

CHILLS AND THRILLS!
It’s creepy, crawly and so much fun it’s spooky! Your little ghost or goblin will help haunt Long Center’s Dell Hall for Austin Symphony Orchestra’s annual Halloween Children’s Concert.  This exciting concert features frightfully fun symphonic music that is stimulating for young eyes and ears (ages 4-11).

This season, your ASO will feature The Composer is Dead a riotous collaboration between composer Nathaniel Stookey and children’s author Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler) that combines two elements of great storytelling: music and suspense. ASO Assistant Conductor Pablo Zamora will lead the orchestra and Austin-based actor Andre Martin (The Staircase and Walker) through this gripping murder mystery where every member of the orchestra is a suspect!

The mysterious whodunit gets underway with Pre-Concert Activities for Kids at 2:00 pm on the Long Center’s H-E-B Terrace, including musical and Halloween crafts, games, and an Instrument Petting Zoo. A one-hour narrated concert will follow, starting at 3:00 pm in Dell Hall.

Come in costume—many members of the orchestra will too. Don’t forget to enter our Spooktacular Costume Contest—prizes will be awarded onstage during the concert, including for The Scariest, The Most Original, and “Best-Dressed Dead Composer.”

NOTE:  Recommended for children ages 4-11.  ASO respectfully discourages the attendance of children under age 4, as they can easily become a distraction for older children for whom the program is designed.  For those who do decide to attend with an infant or toddler, please be prepared to remove your child from the performance space for any sound above a whisper.  Symphonic music is often soft and requires attentive ears!  Unfortunately, it doesn't take much to detract from the experience.  Your cooperation in this regard is greatly appreciated. Please note that all persons in attendance must have a ticket to enter the performance hall.
