Palm Beach County students will be taking a virtual trip to the moon this fall with the Palm Beach Symphony’s One Small Step concert.
Recording of the music for the interactive concert, with the participation of the Demetrius Klein Dance Company, was filmed at the Kravis Center Monday. It was the first time the Palm Beach Symphony had performed on the Kravis Center stage since the coronavirus pandemic forced the organization to cancel all of its in-person concerts for the season.
The program seeks to commemorate the 51st anniversary of the first lunar landing, and to teach students about the Earth’s rotation, gravity and lunar phases. It does so through the character Rocky de Luna, a moon rock who hitches a ride back to Earth on the Apollo 11 spaceship, in the company of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
