Downtown Salem presents

Gets Hands on Music

Salem Philharmonia presents A Family Concert: Meet the Orchestra featuring music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Felix Mendelssohn, Richard Wagner and more, 2 p.m. Saturday, December 2 and Sunday, December 3, at East Salem Community Center, 1850 45th Ave NE. “These concerts are really special,” said Susan Friesen, Executive Director. “They’re geared for the whole family … familiar symphonic classics, but shorter than the selections in our usual concert format, with instrument demonstrations to get the younger crowd excited about instruments that particularly grab their attention.”
