Zuniga comes to see Carmen and offers money for her favors. Carmen arrives at the inn with stolen goods. José lets Carmen go, whereupon Zuniga locks him up and takes away the corporal’s rank. En route, Carmen promises José that if he lets her escape she will meet him at the inn of her friend Lillias Pastia. Unable to control Carmen, he orders José to take her to jail. The two girls fight and José’s superior, Zuniga, appears.

A gypsy, Carmen, throws a flower to the young corporal and sings an erotic love song. Tickets are $7.50, available at G&B Select-a-Seat outlets or call (800) 325-SEAT.Micaëla, a young country girl, arrives in Seville looking for her childhood sweetheart, Don José. The kid-friendly concert will be preceded by a Musical FunFair at 1 p.m., featuring hands-on activities and games. Soprano Andrea Frey will assist with Delibes’ “Bell Song.” Frey is studying voice at Whitworth College and has appeared in several Uptown Opera productions. The search will end with a return to the United States to the beat of John Phillip Sousa’s “Liberty Bell March.” The trail of the missing bell will lead to France (Saint-Saens’ “Danse Macabre”), the United States (Bernstein’s “Cool”), Germany (Tchaikovsky’s “Dance of the Suger Plum Fairy”), Russia (Prokofiev’s “Troika”), India (Delibes’ “Bell Song”) and the Ukraine (Mussorgsky’s “Great Gate of Kiev”). The journey will take the audience all over the world in a program that is designed to teach children about music and geography in an entertaining way. In this program, Carmen Sandiego has taken the Liberty Bell from Philadelphia, and the children in the audience must help Inspector Clue-not find it with the aid of musical clues provided by the symphony. “The Case of the Missing Bells” is based on the computer game “Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?” Carmen Sandiego was also a popular PBS television show before it went of the air in 1996.

The search for Carmen Sandiego will move to Spokane on Sunday for the Spokane Symphony’s “SymFunnies” family concert at 2 p.m.
