ABOUT

Be inspired as you sing, dance, and read along with the orchestra in this energetic and heart-warming performance that features George Gershwin’s American classic Rhapsody in Blue. The San Diego Symphony brings Mo Willems’ award-winning book Because to life, with music written by Jessie Montgomery, and Mexican-American composer Arturo Márquez’s Conga del Fuego Nuevo is a fiery adventure that uses conga rhythms in an expression of joy that is big in character and drive!
