Share your love of music with your children. Music for Life is a way for families to experience classical music together. Parents (or grandparents) bring children between the ages of four and ten to our concerts. They sit together in the audience for the first orchestra work on the program. Then Maestro Heatherington invites the children to go to a separate room with professional music educators from the Music Institute of Chicago. There they learn more about the music they have heard, the composer or the historical and cultural setting of the music.
