Education

The Norwalk Symphony Orchestra is committed to providing not only the finest in symphonic musical performance, but also to community outreach. In a continuing and ever expanding offering of educational programs, the NSO is an area leader in this field. From the extremely popular 'Not Just For Kids' series, and 'Instrument Petting Zoos', to chamber performances by NSO musicians and guest artists, young people throughout Fairfield County and beyond are exposed to music and music-making in an up close and personal way. Maestro Wittry also provides a very special 'Podium Perspective' in an informative talk before every concert.
