Family Matinee:
The Firebird

In an effort to
bring the story to life, the Grand Rapids Symphony will present Stravinsky’s
remarkable masterpiece The Firebird on
stage at the DeVos Performance Hall on Saturday. The story was originally
written for ballet based on Russian folk tales of a magical glowing bird that
acts as both a blessing and curse to its owner. The symphony’s powerful
thematic elements will take the audience on a musical journey; one perfect for
young families to enjoy. Cirque de la Symphonie performers will also join along
in the performance on stage to help add to the musical journey. The concert is
at 3 p.m. and tickets start at $15 for adults and $5 for kids and students.
Tickets are available for purchase at the DeVos Place convention center and Van
Andel Arena box offices. For more information, visit http://grsymphony.org/concerts/dte-energy-foundation-family-series/family-matinee-firebird
