Be on the lookout for hungry tanukis and magical violins as the Arapahoe Phil and the Japanese Arts Network take your students on a journey to Japan and back! We’ll learn about traditional Japanese instruments, the instruments of the orchestra, and how our differences make us stronger! This show is appropriate for students ages 5-12 and includes interactive song and dance. 

Teacher’s packet with student activities is available here!

Schools and educational groups will receive priority, reserved seating.  Seating is assigned in order of reservation receipt and payment. Click the button above to register! 

The public may purchase tickets at a cost of $7 per student and $17 teacher/adult. Please contact the Arapahoe Philharmonic office at 303-781-1892 or email office@arapahoe-phil.org if your school needs a scholarship.

The Arapahoe Philharmonic has a deep commitment to music education, and educating our children and youth is an integral part of our mission. Colorado State Music Standards 3 (Theory of Music) and 4 (Aesthetic Valuation of Music) will be the educational focus of the concert. We believe the Arapahoe Philharmonic has the most hands-on children’s concert in the south Denver metro area.

PLEASE NOTE: Photos are taken at this event that will be used for the Arapahoe Philharmonic’s marketing, communications, and fundraising purposes.
