Carnival of the Animals from Strings Music Festival features the beloved compositions of Camille Saint-Saëns and new original music by Strings School Days artist Peter Seymour. Strings commissioned this unique collaboration between 12 celebrated musicians, an illustrator, and a filmmaker. We presented the video and study guide to our local kindergarten through 5th grade students in spring, 2021 and the program is now available to everyone!
