Recital Hall - $12
Sponsored by Bank

Kids will love
hearing David Benoit play piano and talk about the themes they’ve come to know
from Charles Schulz’s “Charlie Brown” television
specials. His involvement as a guest educator with the Mr. Holland’s Opus
Foundation has taken him to classrooms throughout the country; in 2001, he won
the Foundation’s “Excellence in Music Education” award.
Mr. Benoit has
performed The Peanuts Piano Concerto with several orchestras as part of
his tribute to Charles Schulz and the music of Vince Guaraldi. In Staller Center’s
“Not Just for Kids”
show, families can enjoy an hour-long program exploring how songs become
characters.
