Educational Outreach

A key mission of the Lake Forest Symphony is to expose young audiences to the thrill of live orchestral music. Every year the Symphony presents Youth Concerts for grade school and junior high age students. This year's concert plans will be announced soon.

Music Director Alan Heatherington selects music which is both entertaining and representative of the more familiar classics. The goal is to provide young people with an introduction to the exciting sound of a symphony orchestra, while making it educational and fun.

Our Traveling Ensembles program augments the children's concert experience. A number of ensembles comprised of musicians from the orchestra are available to bring fun-filled and informative presentations to your school.
