IRIS and the Tennessee Shakespeare Company     February 26th, 2011


.... a creative exploration of Shakespeare's drama through the prism of Michael Gandolfi's evocative music.  This evening of storytelling is complemented by Copland's suite from Appalachian Spring, as well as the Siegfried Idyll, the extraordinary musical gift Richard Wagner first presented to his wife at sunrise to celebrate the birth of their son.

Wagner: Siegfried Idyll

Copland: Appalachian Spring

Gandolfi: Themes from a Midsummer Night
