Orchestra Lumos and Michael Stern present two performances undeniably influenced by Beethoven, but without a note of his music! Hector Berlioz penned his Symphonie fantastique in 1830, taking Beethoven’s dramatic use of storytelling and orchestral color to the next level. It remains a revolutionary orchestral masterpiece—a thrilling and virtuosic ride for musicians and audiences alike. Music by Beethoven contemporaries Emilie Mayer and Louise Farrenc plus a work by Gabriela Ortiz round out this all-orchestral program.

The Children's School

Raising Human Beings: Creating a Collaborative Partnership with Your Child
Clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Ross Greene will introduce parents to a collaborative, compassionate approach to understanding children's challenges.
STAMFORD, CT — The Children's School will welcome Dr. Ross Greene on Wednesday, November 18, at 7 p.m. for "Raising Human Beings: Creating a Collaborative Partnership with Your Child," a presentation for parents. Dr. Greene is a clinical psychologist, a former Harvard Medical School faculty member, and a bestselling author.
Dr. Greene developed Collaborative &amp; Proactive Solutions (CPS), an evidence-based approach to understanding and addressing children's behavioral challenges. His influential books include The Explosive Child, Lost at School, Lost &amp; Found, Raising Human Beings and The Kids Who Aren't Okay.
At the heart of Dr. Greene's philosophy is a simple but powerful principle: "Kids do well if they can."
During the presentation, Dr. Greene will offer parents a different way of understanding children when difficulties arise. Rather than viewing challenging behavior as defiance or a lack of motivation, his approach encourages adults to look beyond behavior, listen carefully to children's concerns, and consider the skills and circumstances that may be contributing to their struggles.
<figure><img src="https://cdn20.patchcdn.com/users/23260881/20261104/072821/nygaard-family___04072820443.jpg"></figure>"At The Children's School, we believe that understanding a child is the first step toward helping that child grow," says Maureen Murphy, head of The Children's School. "Dr. Greene's work reminds us to look beyond behavior, listen carefully, and recognize that every child has a unique set of strengths. When adults take the time to understand what a child is communicating, they can help that child find a path forward."
Parents will leave with practical strategies drawn from CPS for working with children to identify problems, address unmet needs and develop realistic, lasting solutions. The approach puts collaboration ahead of confrontation and understanding ahead of punishment. It helps parents respond when children struggle and strengthens the relationships that help children grow and thrive.
The presentation is free and open to the public and will be held at The Children's School, 118 Scofieldtown Road, Stamford. To reserve a seat, call 203-329-8815.
About The Children's School Since 1964, The Children's School in Stamford has given young children a place to grow from their earliest years into the first chapters of elementary school. Here, every child's potential is honored and given room to flourish. Children grow in independence, meet problems with curiosity, treat others with respect, and discover a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.
