On March 22, the concert will feature music from composers Beethoven, Brahms, Liszt and Gounod, and on May 17, the featured music will be from composers Bizet, Bernstein and Lehar.

"The concerts are great entertainment for the whole family," says Joy Partridge, co-founder of the Scottsdale Philharmonic. "Mark your calendars with these dates."
