My daughter and I were able to catch the KSO story time performance at the festival. These performances are always fun, but this one was particularly exciting because it was the premiere performance of a children's book written in honor of our upcoming 75th anniversary season. Better Than Cookies, As Good As Cake was written by KSO cellist Stacy Miller. It is about a group of friends who get together to form a string quartet. Children are introduced to string instruments, the string quartet, and there is a lot of counting incorporated into the book. This may very well be the only book about a string quartet aimed at young children.
Jennifer Barnett, KSO director of education and community partnership and soprano supreme was the narrator for the story time performance.
Lucie and Ikuko play a duet.
Saturday was also a special day because two members of the quartet celebrated their birthday. Happy Birthday Bill and Stacy!
