A note from Founder & Director Evin Blomberg:

I am so excited to see this collaboration finally come to life! One of my goals for Soli Music Society is to help make classical music more accessible to kids. Over the past few months, I have been working with the Kenton County Public Library to come up with a new series called "Musical Doodles", that would make it possible for kids to have a valuable listening experience without the pressure of a formal performance. We had a great turnout at our first event yesterday!

What is “Musical Doodles” ?

Musical Doodles is an interactive experience that encourages active listening and creative thinking. Each musical selection is introduced with a short description of the piece that highlights a certain topic or overarching theme, serving as a drawing prompt. By providing kids with something to listen for, they can begin to develop critical listening skills and enjoy a creative activity while becoming familiar with classical music.

This demonstrates that children have the ability to understand and interpret classical music. With the help of this activity, they can form a connection with classical music, which supports creativity, emotional expression, and learning. Our goal is to help develop not only future music lovers, performers, and creatives, but also curious, creative thinkers who feel empowered to contribute to making the world a better place in their own unique way.
