Description:

MISO is Back and Stronger than Ever, with the world premiere of Jake the Philharmonic Dog by Karen LeFrak, narrated by Athina Marturet, and the Miami debut of the great pianist Christie Julien.

About Jake the Philharmonic Dog:

“Come learn about many different musical instruments from the perspective of Jake, a jaunty five-year-old terrier with silver whiskers and pointy ears! Throughout the narrated work, musical instruments express Jake barking at car horns, singing with the birds, and even spending time at a grand orchestral hall with his human “dad” Richie, an orchestra’s principal stagehand.

Jake the Philharmonic Dog is a multimedia experience based on the children’s book of the same title by Karen LeFrak.”
