For our first concert of our New Beginnings season, come join the Austin Civic Orchestra in your PJs for a special program featuring a guest narrator. For her inaugural concert as the new ACO Music director, Dr. Veronica Salinas has selected a delightful youth-centered program that includes the hilarious A Grand, Grand Festival Overture with organ, vacuum cleaner and floor polisher as the soloists, Night on Bald Mountain by Mussorgsky, and another fun whodunit piece: The Composer is Dead by Stookey (with Gus Sterneman as narrator).  We end with the delightful Bacchanale from Samson and Dalila.

Please note the kid-friendly start time of 3:00 PM.

• A Grand, Grand Festival Overture, op. 57 by Malcolm Arnold with soloists on Organ, 3 vacuum cleaners, and floor polisher
• Night on Bald Mountain by Modest Mussorgsky, arr. Rimsky-Korsakov
• The Composer is Dead by Nathaniel Stookey, Narrator Dr. W.P. Sterneman III
