Family session of musical storytelling by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra at Heinz Hall.
Musical Storytelling is coming to Heinz Hall on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at 12 PM. It's a session put on by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and the title tells you exactly what to expect: music and storytelling working together rather than one taking the lead over the other.
The whole thing is built for families, so it's one of those Saturday afternoon outings that works as well for kids as it does for adults. Instead of a traditional concert where you sit in silence and listen to a full program, this is a session that weaves narrative and music together, with the storytelling guiding the way through the performance. It's a good way to introduce younger listeners to the orchestra without the formality of a standard evening concert.

Since it's a midday show, it fits into a Saturday morning or early afternoon, which makes it an easy one to build a day around. If you've got kids in the house, it's a chance to get them into Heinz Hall for something that's designed with them in mind. The session runs at 12 PM on Saturday, November 7, at Heinz Hall in downtown Pittsburgh.
