Music Of Oz

Conductor Chelsea Gallo guides The Florida Orchestra through a symphonic exploration of a classic American fairytale at the Mahaffey Theater. Rather than screening a film, this instrumental concert surveys the many ways L. Frank Baum’s universe has been interpreted musically over the decades. The repertoire weaves together the orchestral scores of the 1939 The Wizard of Oz film with the Broadway anthems of Wicked and The Wiz, even folding in Elton John’s radio staple "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road."
