Webisode 1: Wondrous Woodwinds

Join the Calgary Philharmonic and Associate Conductor Karl Hirzer for a fun and educational tour of the Orchestra! This four-part online series takes kids on a musical journey through the four sections that make up a symphony orchestra: woodwinds, strings, brass, and percussion.

Along the way, they'll encounter different instruments and some of the musicians who play them, as well as take a few side trips to discover interesting facts about music and famous composers.

This series of four 15-minute episodes is perfect for parents and educators who want to share the symphony orchestra experience with children and spark a life-long love of classical music.

In the first instalment, Wondrous Woodwinds, children visit four musicians at home and discover the unique characteristics of the clarinet, flute, bassoon, and oboe and learn about Mozart’s short but fascinating life.

Made possible by the generous support of the Rozsa Foundation and the Calgary Foundation.
