FAMILY CONCERT: What Do YOU Play?

Conductor & Host: Vern Griffiths We all love to play - sports, video games, board games - but conductor Vern Griffiths is here to show that playing your instrument is the most fun of all. This interactive musical adventure dives into the orchestra in all its wild, wonderful forms, including instruments you almost never see on a symphony stage! Join the Vancouver Island Symphony for a lively family concert that blasts you into deep space with the iconic music of Star Wars, then brings you back for a joyful, shake-it-off moment inspired by Taylor Swift. Along the way, enjoy musical gems from Beethoven, Vivaldi, Strauss, Bernstein, the Rolling Stones, and more. So tell us… what do YOU play?
