The Bartlesville Symphony Orchestra welcomed 15-hundred to 16-hundred fifth graders from Washington, Nowata, and Osage County schools plus students from Southeast Kansas from Arkansas City to Coffeyville for a noon-hour concert on Wednesday.  The concert, titled Fables and Fairytales presented music of tales from Norway, Spain, and the U.S. plus a Chickasaw story.

Teacher at Coffeyville's Community Elementary School, Andrea Mitchell says the symphony provided lesson materials to help the teachers prepare their students for the experience.

The students said afterward they enjoyed themselves.

Symphony sponsors provided funding to reimburse the schools so that there was no cost to the districts that allowed their students to attend.
