About the event
Oliver Towne is a Mountain Lion who is lost in the Big City. He finds his way back home thanks to the help of many talking animals. This delightful radio play-style adventure will enchant young audiences and introduce them to the wonders of orchestral music!
“Oliver Towne” is a new work from Andrés Martín with words by Roger Arvid Anderson. Martín last joined the PVS in March 2021 when the PVSO performed his extraordinary “Vox: Concerto for Cello” with Amos Yang.
This concert was performed live on April 11, 2024 for about 1,000 3rd- and 4th-graders and their educators in Franklin County, MA, through a special partnership with eight school districts.
The 30th annual PVS Education Concert is sponsored by: The Mary Stuart Rogers Foundation, Greenfield Public Schools, Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, and the Local Cultural Councils of Greenfield, Bernardston and Leyden, Buckland and Shelburne, Conway, Deerfield and Whately, Gill and Montague, Charlemont-Hawley, Northfield, Ashfield, Montague, New Salem and Wendell.
