Move over peanut butter and jelly (at least until lunch), it’s time for the Peanut Butter & Jam Sessions! Designed especially for young children and their accompanying grownups, Chatham Baroque‘s Peanut Butter & Jam Sessions will have you and your toddlers swaying to the lush and intricate music that was popularized in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. Think: composers like Vivaldi, Bach and Handel.
Lively, informal and educational, Peanut Butter & Jam Sessions include performances that get kids singing, dancing, playing and storytelling—with plenty of wiggling.
Next up this Saturday, November 5th for Chatham Baroque’s ongoing Peanut Butter & Jam Session is Meet Miss Melody and Miss Harmony. During the unique concert, children will learn how melody and harmony work together to create beautiful music, and will a healthy snack and beverage.
The program features Chatham Baroque’s Artistic Directors Andrew Fouts (baroque violin), Patricia Halverson (viola da gamba) and Scott Pauley (theorbo and baroque guitar).
Hosted by certified Kindermusik teacher Lynda Wingerd, the energetic PB&J sessions are a local family favorite and a great way to encourage young children to become active and enthusiastic listeners through music, dance and games and gain basic musical concepts in a relaxed atmosphere.
Mark your calendar now for Chatham Baroque’s holiday edition of the Peanut Butter & Jam Sessions on Saturday, December 17, featuring the old-fashioned, carol sing-along event, Sing We Noel.
Concerts take place at Calvary Episcopal Church‘s McClintic Hall in Shadyside. Showtimes are 10 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
