When popular fables are combined with great classical music, the stories come alive. In this innovative format, the Sarasota Orchestra performs a rich tapestry of stunning music from the imaginary world of fairy tales. Narration, actors, photomontages and projected illustrations enhance these classics, adding color, richness and perspective. You'll enjoy beautiful musical excerpts from classical renditions of Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Sleeping Beauty, Mother Goose Suite and Firebird, the Russian folktale.
