Lucas Richman, Music Director and Conductor for the Bangor Symphony Orchestra, has made it his mission to instill in young children the awareness of music as an integral part of their lives. This year’s concert theme is “Belonging”. The symphony orchestra is made up of many musicians, each of whom plays an important part in bringing a composer’s music to life. Maestro Richman will guide us through a program that demonstrates how each of those individual parts belong together, like the threads of a larger musical fabric.
Program:
Nancy Galbraith A Festive Violet Pulse
Henry Purcell Rondeau from Abdelazer Suite
Benjamin Britten Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra
Winner of the Maine High School Concerto Competition, TBD on February 21, 2026
