Scary Music

We went up to Strathmore Hall in Bethesda today to see a kid friendly orchestra concert called "Carnival of Creatures" It was only a 75 minute show and featured scary type music, a dancer, story teller and live 12 foot anaconda snake. The pieces were short and the conductor explained the animal noises being generated by the orchestra. It was pretty cool and the boys love most of it but got tired at the end. Sam was pretending to play piano on the railing you can see to the right and Dylan really liked the xylophone. He said it sounded like a skeleton. We had a box at the right of the stage so could see everything extremely well. It's an introduction to classical music anyway.

The picture above is rather blurry but shows Dylan as Racer X and Sam as a Bat. Dylan's little face is all scrunched up to show him going really fast in his car and Sam is just doing the bat thing. Halloween is coming fast.
