After the Concert

Ask your students to remain in their seats at the end of the concert. A BSO representative will dismiss each group.
Once your group is dismissed, proceed quickly and quietly to your designated exit. If you are unclear as to which exit to use, please do not hesitate to ask a BSO representative.
Ask your students to reflect on their concert experience with the "Be a Music Critic" activity or by using an age-appropriate "Student Response Sheet".
