The 2009 floods wiped out last spring's Pizza Pop Family Concert, so we are bringing back this delightful program and special guest this season. Join us as we celebrate the wonderful new Fargo Main Library with a tribute to children's literature. Pieces include E.B. White's "The Trumpet of the Swan" with music by Benjamin Lees; music from the "Harry Potter" film series; and Ken Kesey's "Little Tricker the Squirrel Meets Big Double the Bear" with music by composer Art Maddox, who will appear in person to narrate the story!

      I remember listening to St Paul Sunday Morning back in the early 90's and hearing "Little Tricker the Squirrel ..." narrated by Ken Kesey. This is a fantastic story and very entertaining for children. I have looked several times since then for a recording of it without success. Art Maddox's score for this story is timely and exciting and moves the imagination along in anticipation of Big Double's next conquest and Tricker's next antic.If I lived anywhere close to Fargo I would definitely go to hear this performance.
