"The Snowman"

Our family took Grandma Rundell and Grandpa and Grandma Sorensen to the Utah Valley Symphony family night concert titled "The Snowman". 

The Snowman is a children's picture book without words by English author Raymond Briggs. The book was adapted into a 26-minute animated television special in 1982. The story is told through pictures, action and music, scored by Howard Blake. It is wordless like the book, except for the song "Walking in the Air".

It was a wonderful night! It was fun seeing all the instruments and feeling the music. . . something you don't really experience if you aren't there. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.  Afton told me said that she realized the importance of dynamics from the orchestra last night. That was something that she has been learning at piano lessons. That's why we go!
