PERFECT FOR THE KIDS! Join the APO for a family concert of music and fun on their regional tour of the madcap retelling of this classic children’s story. Watch as this old woman’s appetite for strange objects transforms her quiet afternoon into a wildly spectacular tale!

Sunday, March 15th, at 1:00 p.m. in Glidden Hall Room 101

The APO was founded in 2015 with a mission to build community through music, blending popular and classical genres in innovative ways to engage new and diverse audiences. Through live and virtual performances, accessible educational initiatives and community collaborations, APO makes the highest quality art for the broadest possible audiences. Seeing an opportunity to challenge the status quo of the repertoire a typical orchestra performs, Founder and Music Director Luke Frazier, created The American Pops with the intent of breaking the mold of the traditional pops orchestra.

Since its inception, APO has appeared in over 30 PBS Specials, including Wicked in Concert, Black Broadway, and United in Song. Through non-traditional orchestral settings, APO aims to deliver popular American classics to those who already know and love them, while also introducing these timeless pieces to younger generations in approachable settings.
