When the music-loving pup, Treble, crashes a concert, it's up to the Omaha Symphony to show the meaning of family. Which Instrument family will treble join: the plucky and energetic Strings? The confident and brilliant Brass? It's up to our Maestro and the audience to help Treble find a forever home!
Mission Imagination combines a child’s love of storytelling with the power of symphonic music in an up-close and playful setting. Students aren’t just part of the audience, they’re part of the action, making this a one-of-a-kind learning adventure.
Handmade instruments are not only encouraged but highly recommended for this mission!
