Minnesota Orchestra Family Concert March 27, 2011

Water has been an inspiration for artists of all kinds for thousands of years. Handel's 'Water Music' is among music's most famous works. Steve Heitzeg's 'Aqua' celebrates the work of Jacques Cousteau in saving the planet's water systems. Also on the program is 'Oceana,' a special project featuring Debussy's 'La Mer' with original choreography by Carl Flink, Grofe's 'Mississippi' Suite and Strauss' 'On the Beautiful Blue Danube.'
