    Such a great way to teach the orchestra to anyone, not just children. A lot of people really underappreciate the orchestra because they associate it with old music nobody except music history nerds care about, when in reality the versatility of the orchestra is unmatched by any instrument ensemble I can think of. Also I'm lowkey disappointed that the french horns didn't play the slow version of a star wars melody like they do in John Williams' soundtrack lol.

    I actually remember I was in 6th grade back in spring 2015, my school went to see the Stockton Symphony Orchestra. I was 11 almost 12 years old back then and I was excited because that was the first time I ever saw an orchestra. Before the concert started, the orchestra separated and a reddish brown bell peaking from behind the stage caught my attention. After a couple seconds of looking, I realized that I was looking straight at the bell of a bassoon. I was surprised because before that day, I have never seen a bassoon before let alone one in real life.
