“Where there’s music there can be no evil.”
– Miguel Cervantes, Don Quixote Chapter LXVIII
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra’sThe Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote de la Mancha inspired us to a project so epic the knight-errant himself surely would have approved: a weekend festival of music, art, and learning. We’ll document our progress, share information both academic and trivial, and muse upon the rich musical world of Cervantes’ novel here.
