Discover Series

Our Flexible Approach to Young People’s Concerts

Developed variously for organizations including the New Jersey Symphony and The Boston Symphony Orchestra, Discover Concerts are family events that package the host, script, projections and musical examples to illuminate iconic music for young listeners.

Our Discover Series are often written as Relaxed Performances, and depending on the organization’s needs, embrace exciting new technologies such as ConcertCue from MIT, instrument petting zoos, or other technologies like VR headsets (in the lobby), classroom visits, curriculum companions, pre-concert talks, dynamic multi-media program notes, interviews, and other assets.

Artistic Director Bill Barclay hosts his own script with the conductor and soloists, to bring a complete program under an hour long into your orchestra that is family friendly, sensitive to neurodivergent audiences, and impactful for all ages.
