The Nature of Music
In this program, students will explore the natural world, not with binoculars or boots, but with the orchestra! Along the way, audiences will discover how composers transform the sights, sounds, and wonders of nature into orchestral masterpieces.

2026 Teacher & Student Packets
Thank you for providing another wonderful experience for our 5th graders. In our rural community, this will probably be the only opportunity students will take to attend a classical orchestra. The teacher's packet was extremely helpful for me to be able to prep them on what they will hear. I surveyed the teachers and students who attended. I heard comments like: "best year yet" (from a veteran teacher who has attended them for years), the theme was engaging including on-stage visuals, the narrator was incredible, etc. Thank you ISO!
Rock Creek Elementary
Great theme, song selections, and performances! The conductor was brilliant and warm, and the host was funny and lighthearted - both connected very well with the audience! Educational packets were an engaging supplement to the music; the staff provided a smooth check in and out process. This program gives children the unique opportunity to have a positive and memorable first-time symphony experience!
