Helen Richman, Director of Chocoloae Chip Concerts, sent news of their upcoming event at Old First Church in Park Slope on November 3rd and 4th.

We hope to see you in a few short weeks at an upcoming Chocolate Chip Concert the weekend of November 3rd/4th. Chocolate Chip Chamber Music is a professional concert series geared towards toddlers to age six, based in Park Slope. We present engaging, interactive mini-concerts (about 30 minutes in length), from classical to jazz and world music. Our emcee and mascot, Baker Bobbie, is on hand to introduce the pieces and the players in a memorable way. This fall, due to popular demand, Chocolate Chip has added a third performance of the same program, on Sunday afternoon, in order to retain the unique experience of live chamber music.

Join us as we begin our second season with. . .

The Erklingen Brass Quartet in A Pirate’s Booty of Brass
Jim Lake and Colin Brigstocke, trumpets; Amber Lane, french horn; Michael Canipe, bass trombone

Set sail on an exciting adventure with Baker Bobbie and her musician mates aboard a pirate ship! Selections from Gabrieli to Joplin are woven with favorite pirate lingo and antics. Young listeners will have ample opportunity to don their imaginary pirate hats and practice their own swagger to dance-able numbers. Plus, more mellow strains bring opportunities for pretend night – time on deck. As always, concert-goers will enjoy two treats at the end of the performance: the chance to sample the instruments, and a fresh-baked chocolate chip cookie.

CONCERTS ARE SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2007, AT 10:00 AND 11:30 A.M.
AND SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 4 AT 4:00 P.M.
