Davenport, IA-This exciting new collaboration between the Quad City Symphony Orchestra, the Davenport Library, and the Davenport Public Schools demonstrates the illustrative power of music, with a little help from the musicians of the Quad City Symphony Orchestra. A string trio made of QCSO musicians will perform pieces from the classical repertoire to mirror the emotional impact of memorable moments in the classic book Bud, Not Buddy, similar to the way a movie score or cartoon might use classical music. Fourth Grade students from Jefferson-Edison Elementary in Davenport have been studying the book as part of their curriculum, but all are welcome to attend this fun and engaging presentation.

The programs are at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on February 8 at the Davenport Public Library in downtown Davenport, 321 N. Main Street. The event is free to the public and students of all ages are invited to attend. Press is also invited to cover the event.
