Once Upon a Symphony: Stone Soup

Once Upon a Symphony programs combine vibrant music played by CSO musicians, storytelling and enchanting visuals for a playful concert experience.

A hungry traveler arrives at a village with nothing except an old cooking pot, arousing the curiosity of the townsfolk when he begins to make a pot of “stone soup.” One by one, the villagers contribute to the broth and find musical harmony as they enjoy the most delicious soup they have ever tasted.
