Upcoming Show: Beethoven at the Met Museum in a Kid-friendly & Affordable Program!

02/06/2013 by Maytal

by Contributing Blogger Maytal Wichman

I’ve lived in New York City for over twelve years and I’ve visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art countless times, a few of them with my children. We have seen the knights in armor, the mummies and the Impressionist paintings but I have never known that the museum holds concerts and performances at various locations on the premises. One such location is the Grace Rainey Rogers Auditorium which is now holding kid-friendly (and affordable!) performances of Beethoven’s music by the Endellion String Quartet. (Read more after the jump)

The Endellion String Quartet hails from Cambridge University in England and will be making a rare New York appearance. The ensemble will be playing the complete Beethoven’s String Quartet cycle over a period of six performances which are perfect for introducing your school-aged children to the beauty of classical music.

The kid-friendly times – on Fridays & Saturdays early evenings & Sundays in the afternoon – make it easy to bring children. The price for kids is $1, which makes it very affordable and also includes museum admission. The recommended age for the concerts is 7 and up. This series is supported in part by the Grace Jarcho Ross and Daniel G. Ross Concert Fund.
