Very Young People's Concerts

Philharmonic violist Judith Nelson with a young aspiring musician

Designed especially for 3-6-year-olds, Very Young People's Concerts introduce youngsters to classical music through imaginative engagement, active listening and hands-on music-making with members of the New York Philharmonic. This season we feature music of Antonín Dvořák and Friends. Enjoy the rhythms and melodies of folk song and dance, set to original stories to enchant the young.

Concerts are at Merkin Concert Hall, 129 W. 67th Street
