About this Performance
Like a train conductor guiding travelers, a musical conductor can transport us to exciting places using rhythm, melody, and imagination—just with the flick of a baton or the wave of an arm. With the help of Yo Gabba Gabba!’s warm-hearted DJ Lance Rock, conductor Ana María Patiño-Osorio guides us to the fairy-tale pagodas of Ravel’s Mother Goose, spends a spooky Night on Bald Mountain, leads Arturo Márquez’s joyous dance across Mexico, and more.
John Adams’ Chairman Dances kicks off the morning with the entire orchestra chugging along like a train before breaking out into a symphonic foxtrot. Through colorful sounds and lively pieces, we’ll discover how the conductor leads us on a journey and keeps all the musicians on track.
Make sure to come an hour early, at 10am, for a range of exciting activities that change to fit the theme of each performance. Children and families enjoy self-guided art activities and fun for all ages throughout the space. Join us for a morning of musical celebration that will stay with children for a lifetime.
