The theme of the concert was "Music for the End of Time." The children and I were uncertain as to what to expect. The pieces they performed allowed the children to experience hearing works sung in other languages, as well as, English.

Just that morning, I read to the children about opera. Little Man asked if we heard opera, while walking to the car. Egee quickly noted that it was not opera because they didn't act. I told him that the music was similar to what he would hear at an opera. He was satisfied.
I love that we are able to experience different music genres at our library. The children enjoy the outings and I enjoy adding the fine arts into our curriculum at no cost.
