A Fairy Tale

A Fairy Tale - Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 4pm

How can a story inspire a composer to create a musical version of it? How does having a narrator affect the way we listen to a musical story? Come hear excerpts from “The Happy Prince” by composer, Colin Pip Dixon, who will be there to share the backstory.
