Programme Note
A delightful musical fable for narrator, mixed chorus, and orchestra that tells the tale of a grand fete arranged for the beautiful but haughty Infanta of Spain on her twelfth birthday. The festivities take an unexpected turn when a wild dwarf appears and dances for the young princess. A must for children of all ages.
