The 57th Season continues with the season's third concert on Sunday afternoon, February 5, 2012, returning to a favorite format--the All-Ages Children's Concert, featuring Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf with narrator, Derdriu Ring, the exciting Bernard Rogers' Once Upon a Time (5 Fairy Tales) with narration and an audience favorite, Rossini's Overture to William Tell

The concert will be held in Conway Hall at The Shaker Campus of University School located at 20701 Brantley Road in Shaker Heights, OH.  The concert begins at 3:30 pm and is free and open to the public.

This season inaugurates familiar repertoire presented in a new performance venue. All the orchestra's concerts will be held at University School's Conway Hall.  Although this new location was necessitated by the ongoing construction project at Beachwood High School, the Orchestra's longtime home, the handsome architecture and fine acoustics of the 600-seat Conway Hall make the move exciting for the players and inviting for the audience.  On-campus parking is available, and a roving shuttle bus will pick up audience members after 2:30 PM on concert days from the street parking that surrounds this large circular complex.  For further information regarding concerts and parking (including wheelchair accessibility), please visit our website at www.suburbansymphony.org.
