Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra: Last Stop on Market Street

What do you see in your city? “Last Stop on Market Street,” a Caldecott Honor book, and winner of the 2016 Newberry Medal, follows curious CJ on a bus ride with his loving grandmother on a rainy day. Accompanied by a special ensemble of trumpet, cello, clarinet, trombone, and percussion from the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra, this story shares what CJ sees with music describing the people and places along the way. Written by Matt de la Peña and illustrated by Christian Robinson, this ode to kindness, empathy, and imagination is brought to life by the KSO ensemble, as part of their Musical Storybooks series.
