CANTON, OHIO (January 29, 2015) - Children in the Canton area will have the opportunity to hear Sergey Prokofiev's classic musical tale Peter and the Wolf live when the Canton Symphony Orchestra presents this year's Kinder Concert on April 15 at 9:30 and 10:30am in the Great Court of Canton's Cultural Center for the Arts.

The CSO has been performing the Kinder Concert annually since 1971 and since that time, the full orchestra performance has been carefully programmed with music and stories designed to engage and educate children between the ages of 3 and 6. Peter and the Wolf introduces the orchestra as each character is represented by a particular instrument. The story of the mischievous boy, his animal friends and their adventure beyond the gates of Grandpa's house will be told by the orchestra, narrator and musicians portraying the familiar characters.

The Kinder Concert programs are open to the public as well as school groups. Tickets are $5 for each performance and can be purchased online at www.cantonsymphony.org or by calling the Canton Symphony box office at 330-452-2094 weekdays 9am - 5pm.
