Carnegie Kids: ‘Songs for Unusual Creatures’

At this free program, recommended for ages 3 through 6, the composer and musician Michael Hearst will celebrate animals you may never have heard of on instruments you may never have heard. Drawn from his album “Songs for Unusual Creatures,” this presentation, part of the series Carnegie Kids, will playfully investigate species like the blobfish, the elephant shrew and the blue-footed booby, using instruments like the stylophone, the claviola and the theremin. Video imagery will allow young audience members to see these wild things, too.
