Susan Kander: The Donkey, the Goat and the Little Dog
Step into a world where instruments become characters, music becomes movement, and a string quartet transforms into a miniature theatre. Susan Kander’s The Donkey, the Goat and the Little Dog is a charming, witty, and heart‑warming story brought to life through playful narration and expressive chamber music.
This piece has been described as a friendly, pain‑free and often hilarious introduction to the string quartet for the 4‑and‑older crowd. Each instrument embodies a character — the Donkey (viola), the Goat (second violin), the Little Dog (first violin), and the Farmer (cello) — creating a lively cast that laughs, argues, plots, and ultimately celebrates together.
Duration about 30 min (no intermission)
