NC Symphony 2026

 


On Tuesday, January 6th, 2026 the 4th graders at Barton Pond attended the annual North Carolina Symphony field trip! Students heard works by Beethoven, Anthony Kelley, Jesse Montgomery, Bizet, Grieg, Schubert, Verdi, John Stafford Smith, and Francis Scott Key. Students also heard special performances by each section of the NC Symphony that highlighted sounds and timbres produced by each instrument family. The students had a great time on this field trip and our rising 4th graders look forward to going on this field trip next year!
