Music in the Wild

About this event

Music in the Wild Join us with the Chattanooga Symphony & Opera for music inspired by Peter and the Wolf! Experience the magic of music and nature coming together at Music in the Wild, a one-of-a-kind outdoor event presented by Reflection Riding Arboretum & Nature Center and the Chattanooga Symphony & Opera. Set against the beautiful autumn landscape of Lookout Mountain, this family-friendly afternoon offers much more than a traditional concert. Explore the campus of Reflection Riding while enjoying pop-up musical performances, animal encounters, hands-on activities, and opportunities to connect with the natural world. This event will feature an outdoor performance by the CSO of Peter and the Wolf, Sergei Prokofiev’s beloved musical adventure. As the story unfolds, different instruments of the orchestra bring Peter, the bird, the duck, the cat, and the wolf vividly to life! Bring the whole family and enjoy an unforgettable autumn afternoon filled with music, wildlife, and discovery in one of Chattanooga’s most beautiful natural settings.
