Families will love the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra’s Music at the Watering Hole, a FREE ONLINE family concert. The program will feature a stimulating original story by national best-selling author, Michele Wallace Campanelli that will come to life on screen with a film presentation created and directed by award-winning Mendx Studios. King of Africa, Kojo the Lion, was surprised when a box fell off a tourist bus and dropped a symphony of musical instruments near his watering hole. With a great love for music, Kojo decides to bring all of the wild animals of the Savannah together. Could these natural enemies learn to get along to become an orchestra? And just what would they play? The concert will feature music from Madagascar, Lion King, Zootopia, Jungle Book, Jurassic Park, The Croods and more.
