Wild Symphony with Dan Brown and Sistema NB šŸŽ»

June 11 @ 7:00 pm 8:30 pm

Best Selling author of The Da Vinci Code, and composer, Dan Brown joins the Sistema NB Childrenā€™s Orchestra to perform his Wild Symphony.

Dan Brown – the #1 best-selling author ofĀ The Da Vinci CodeĀ and related thrillers,Ā Angels & Demons,Ā Inferno, andĀ The Lost SymbolĀ ā€“ is known for exciting twists, turns, and surprises.

His musical surprise, WILD SYMPHONY, unveils the novelist as a lifelong musician and composer.

Inspired by the track record and international leadership of NBYO and Sistema NB, Brown has agreed to participate personally in the Sistema NB performance in Moncton on June 11, 2024. This will be his solo, personal collaboration in a Wild Symphony performance in 2024!

And although Wild Symphony is being performed by professional symphony orchestras from around the world, in New Brunswick, Wild Symphony will be performed by the Sistema NB Childrenā€™s Orchestra – 120 musicians, 14 years of age and younger, a class of its own.

Now in its 15th year, Sistema New Brunswick has grown into Canadaā€™s largest orchestral program, engaging 1,200 children and youth and employing 60 professional teaching artists. The Sistema New Brunswick program is free. Children, starting in grade 1, participate three hours after school, five days a week totalling 600 hours annually. Music and the orchestra become a powerful catalyst for achievement and social development.

Plan to join us. It will be WILD!
