The five women shared their music and stories with the students by playing famous favorites, such as “Peter and the Wolf” and “Hansel and Gretel” as well as a variety of other enjoyable children’s stories.

Representing the Mankato Symphony Orchestra, Chione has traveled to libraries throughout Greater Minnesota sharing children’s stories with live music and narration.  The Mankato Symphony’s mission is to create emotion-packed, high-quality musical experiences and promote music education in and for South Central Minnesota. More than 12,000 people attend the Symphony in person and another 50,000 listen on the radio.

All SELCO/Legacy programs are free events thanks to the voters in Minnesota! This vetted grant was written by the LeRoy Public Library’s Director, who is also the LeRoy-Ostrander K12 Librarian, Rhonda Barnes.
