LCO presents a “Spooky” Symphonic Experience
Sponsored by Eastern Kentucky University
Free and open to the public at Bryan Station High School

LEXINGTON, KY (Sept. 5, 2023) — The Lexington Community Orchestra (LCO) presents a celebration of spooky classical music at 3:00pm Sunday, Oct. 29 at Bryan Station High School. This family-friendly event is a great introduction to orchestral music for children, or a fun reminder of Halloween favorites for the young at heart.
The concert program includes recognizable favorites from classic stories like The Sorcerer’s Apprentice and Peter and the Wolf. The orchestra will also perform creepier classics In the Hall of the Mountain King, Night on Bald Mountain, and Danse Macabre. Costumes are encouraged, and children will have the opportunity to march around the auditorium to show off their costume and get an up-close look at the musicians performing. Treat bags will be available at the end of the concert for children up to age 18.
​
