Lima Symphony episodes available

LIMA — The Lima Symphony Orchestra has released a new episode of “Mornings with the Maestro,” now available online. Mornings with the Maestro are vibrant educational programs dreamed up by Maestro Andrew Crust and featuring Lima Symphony Orchestra musicians. These programs are intended to introduce young audiences to the basic elements of music in fun and engaging ways.

Mornings with the Maestro Episode 3: Meet the Harp introduces listeners to new LSO principal harpist, Alix Raspé. Maestro Crust sits down with Alix to find out the answers to some basic questions: How big is the harp? What do the pedals do? How are harp players like swans? This program is appropriate for all ages and is available through the Lima Symphony Orchestra YouTube page. New performances will continue to be released throughout the winter and spring. Links to Mornings with the Maestro can also be accessed through the Lima Symphony Orchestra website.

Mornings with the Maestro performances are part of the Lima Symphony’s ongoing commitment to music education and their firm belief that music and the other arts are critical tools in building strong communities. This series is supported by The Lima Public Library, Keystone Meats and The Rotary Club of Lima.
