The PSO and the McCracken County Public Library collaborate for Musical Story Time, a program designed to promote music and literacy. Library Storytellers and PSO Musicians perform for local schools, serving approximately 5200 students each year. Goals are to motivate reading, enhance comprehension, explore music and instruments, encourage creativity, and bring great composers and their music to life.

The Big Three Composers are Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Using a six-year curriculum, each student receives an age appropriate view of each composer two times during the kindergarten through fifth grade journey.
