Each year families throughout the region mark their calendars for the Allentown Symphony’s fun-filled adventure in music. Young or old, audiences love Prokofiev’s delightful journey in music, which helps children identify different instruments of the orchestra while its story about Peter and his animal friends captivates their imaginations.
