Most of us share a common sense of awe and wonder at how beautiful the world around us can be! Not surprisingly, this intrinsic love of Nature is reflected in the musical compositions produced by many gifted composers. Join the Kingston Symphony as we explore some wonderful music inspired by the great outdoors, including a special performance of Peter and the Wolf.
