What not to miss this semester!
Members of the Symmetric Orchestra, who hail from all over the African Diaspora, will join with community drummers and African music ensembles in our gallery for a jam session before they perform with Toumani Diabate that night. Everyone is welcome, so come on down with your favorite instrument!

TOUMANI DIABATE’S SYMMETRIC ORCHESTRA is
the creation of Diabate, an African artist responsible
for introducing the kora—a 21-string harp
unique to West Africa—to audiences
around the world.
The FlynnArts music program offers a variety of vocal and instrumental classes, and serves our widest range of ages, beginning with the young infants in Music Makers. Early music classes enhance children’s natural creative impulses and help develop concentration, coordination, and cooperation. Classes for older children through adults combine individual attention with ensemble work, broaden students’ musical knowledge and performance skills, and introduce like-minded friends who often play and sing together for years to come. Masterclasses with visiting artists and discounts on world-class Flynn Center presentations further enhance the program.
