MUSICAL DOODLES 

MUSICAL DOODLES

Each 30- to 40-minute Musical Doodles session focuses on a theme that ties together art and music, and participants are encouraged to listen critically and think creatively as they come up with doodles based on the music they hear.

By combining listening with an interactive element, young listeners are able to enjoy an introduction to live classical music in a casual and fun environment.

We draw on a range of sources when developing themes for each session. In past seasons, sessions have been guided by materials from Learning Through Art: The Guggenheim Museum Collection by Marilyn Goodman and Natalie Lieberman, as well as by works on display at the Cincinnati Art Museum. We also build themes around upcoming holidays and visual ideas that connect directly to the music being performed.
