From rolling hills to the night sky, composers find inspiration all around them. Join us for a very special “rewind” style family concert inspired by the majesty of our world. Chameleon’s resident teacher Hans Spencer will be your guide as we sing with the birds, buzz with mosquitos, visit mountains and mesas, and soar among the stars and constellations.
