Meteorologist Mike Alger narrates Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Caroline Shaw’s musical telling of a beloved children’s book in a program of works which use music to tell stories.  Kevin Lau’s fiery portrait of the Greek Goddess, Artemis, demands immediate attention while Rossini’s signature wit and sparkle are on full display in his take on the Cinderella fairy tale.
