La Musica Presents The Carnival of Endangered Wonders: A Zoological Fantasy

Things To Do

A parade of endangered wonders will take the stage at the Sarasota Opera House when La Musica Chamber Music presents the world premiere of “The Carnival of Endangered Wonders: A Zoological Fantasy” on April 9. Composed by pianist and composer Michael Stephen Brown, the imaginative new work invites audiences on a fantastical journey across the globe — from the rustle of orangutans in the forests of Borneo to the call of the Puerto Rican parrot at sunrise and the quiet grace of marine creatures gliding beneath coastal waters.
