Shoua and the Northern Lights Dragon (World Premiere) @Northfield Public Library

  • Northfield Public Library 210 Washington Street Northfield, MN, 55057 United States (map)

Join us for Story Time with Chione, featuring a brand new musical story based on Twin Cities author Ka Vang’s Shoua and the Northern Lights Dragon.

Vang’s short chapter book tells the story of Shoua, a Hmong-American girl who discovers her voice as she saves an injured dragon while camping in the north woods of Minnesota. Hear this story set to beautiful and evocative music composed by fellow Minnesotan Jocelyn Hagen!

We will combine musical character themes with American Sign Language, and we will share the stories of each of our instruments and the ensemble we create--the wind quintet!

This will be the World Premiere of Jocelyn’s piece, Shoua and the Northern Lights Dragon and we will be treated to her fantastic character voices as she will narrate the program!

This story time program free and perfect for all ages! We hope to see you there.
