Journey to a place of adolescent wonder and discovery as Camille Saint-Saëns’ “Carnival of the Animals” transforms the grand majesty of the animal kingdom from wild habitat to center stage. Join the Virginia Arts Festival for a day filled with imagination and intrigue, as music guides you across 53 pristine acres and through 400 enchanting exhibits at the Virginia Zoo. Internationally acclaimed piano duo Andrey Kasparov and Oksana Lutsyshyn combine with winds, strings, percussion, and narration to construct a musical kaleidoscope of alluring sounds from the wild. The flute chirps like a bird; pianos roar like lions; and the cello plays the sweet song of the swan. Your family will experience true magic as a parade of memories marches on with you from the zoo!
