Let your imagination take flight with music inspired by fairy tales, legend, and adventure. Wagner’s Tannhäuser Overture will have you picturing gleaming castles and knights on horseback, while music from Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel enchants from “once upon a time” to “happily ever after.” For the grand finale, tag along on the colorful, sometimes comical exploits of Miguel de Cervantes’s “Man of La Mancha” in Strauss’s action-packed Don Quixote, spotlighting Principal Cello Brinton Averil Smith and Principal Viola Joan DerHovsepian.
