This one-woman theatrical show presents a magical world of sprites, fairies, and other mythical beings as depicted in music throughout the centuries. Individual songs are repurposed into a narrative arc with sweet, playful, and mysterious characters. We meet the woodland fairies and their radiant queen, who is deeply connected to nature. She is confident, strong, and head over heels in love with her fairy king, and all is well on earth. Join our event to find out what happens to them.
The music spans centuries and genres. We pay homage to Henry Purcell’s “Fairy Queen” opus from the 17th century, Beethoven’s lighthearted Irish Fairy song cycle from 1810, Britten and Humperdinck from the turn of the 20th century, and even contemporary artists such as Bjork and Florence Welch. This lighthearted little fable helps us realize that letting baseless doubts and suspicions into our hearts can cloud our abilities and the beauty of our natures.
Newly added family event to wrap the MN Bach Festival & Mobile Mini-Concerts Series. Check all MMC musicians all at once!
