Parizade and the Singing Tree performed for Family Concert

Rice University’s annual “Family Concert” will present Parizade and the Singing Tree for narrator and ensemble. This tale from the 1001 Nights (or, so called “Arabian Nights”) will be narrated by singer and educator Rachel Buchman, and conducted by Michael Webster. Take your family on a thrilling adventure as a musical story unfolds before your ears! A brave and determined Parizade is on a quest to find a magical singing tree but encounters challenges (like a mysterious old dervish) along the way. Will she prevail in her journey?
