Left Brain, Right Brain
I will save my seminar on music and innateness for another day. Meanwhile, consider taking a drive to Tanglewood in Lenox. At 3pm tomorrow (Saturday, August 19) members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra will perform The Tanglewood Family Concert, “Musical Storytelling: An Afternoon of Music, Stories & Drawing.” The program includes Tchaikovsky’s Children’s Album Op. 39, Saint-Saëns’ Carnival of the Animals, and Satie’s Sports & Divertissements. Kids are invited to bring their favorite stuffed animal, drawing pad, and crayons or markers. Tickets are $10 for adults; children 12 and under are free.
There are few places on earth like Tanglewood. What with the music, stories, and art framed within Tanglewood’s verdant, expansive backdrop, your family no doubt will be in for a whole brain experience.
