Coming Up: Magic at the Symphony

This might be a fun way to get your kids interested in the symphony. This Sunday, magician/mentalist Jay Alexander joins the San Francisco Sinfonietta for Magic at the Symphony. About the show:

“This exciting family concert, uniting the comedy magic and mentalism show of Jay Alexander with the playful sounds of the San Francisco Sinfonietta Orchestra under the baton of charismatic Steiner, will definitely delight the young and the not so young.

Witness the world's only Psychic Symphony, a floating violinist and more! Hear fascinating and familiar orchestral works like the "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", "Can Can", "Flight of the Bumblebee" and other favorites paired with Jay's masterful ability to fool the audience and leave them amazed.”

Alexander claims to be magician to the stars (including Robin Williams, John Cleese, the Rolling Stones) – not sure what that means (he opens for them?) but it can’t be bad.
