The San Diego Symphony's annual January Festival returns in its fourth year entitled, Hearing the Future. Throughout the festival, which runs January 9 - 27, 2019, the organization explores and celebrates the power of music and art to give voice to the evolution and revolutions in the world at large. The festival, curated by composer-conductor Matthew Aucoin (b.1990), will shine a spotlight on the music being made today - from composers and performers who are still in high school, to a 90-year-old jazz master. The festival will also explore the way music from the past - from Haydn, Beethoven and Berlioz to the creators of African-American spirituals - engaged with the most urgent issues of their time.

Join us for an evening of opera and musical theater as we explore the dark side of the forest in our original piece, Grimmly Ever After. Experience a story of sinister betrayal, unfulfilled prophecies and a good dose of love twisted together in this operatic fairytale, featuring the characters you know - Rumpelstiltskin, Hansel & Gretel and The Evil Queen - in a way you've never seen them, accompanied by with the music of Lawrence & Fain, Schubert and Humperdinck, among many others.
