Join CPR Classical host Monique Brooks Roberts for a day of family fun and music!

Designed for children ages seven and under and their families, this 45-minute musical adventure invites you to hop aboard for a journey like no other.

Tiny Tots: Planes, Trains & Automobiles is a fun, interactive concert where young audiences sit on the floor, surrounded by a 30-piece orchestra—close enough to feel the music zoom, chug, and soar all around them.

This playful program features a mix of beloved children’s songs, classical favorites, and special guest performers, all inspired by things that go. Little ones are encouraged to wiggle, dance, pretend to fly and discover the sounds of the orchestra in a welcoming, joy-filled environment.

After the performance, families are invited to meet the musicians and guest artists, ask questions, explore instruments and keep the adventure going.

ASL interpretation is available at all Tiny Tots: Planes, Trains & Automobiles performances. If ticket cost is a barrier, you're invited to request discounted or free tickets by filling out this form.

Be sure to stop by the CPR table to say hello!
