VIVO Music Festival Season 10 culminates in a wondrous musical web woven over the course of four spellbinding works. VIVO Fairy Tales brings together the fantastical musical world of Robert Schumann with the noble joy of Mozart, the heroic exultation of Johannes Brahms with the stunning originality of Marcos Balter. Each piece highlights the virtuosity and gripping storytelling capacities of our internationally-renowned VIVO Festival Artists utilizing unconventional ensemble formations.
