The Knoxville Symphony and several East Tennessee collaborators bring Mendelssohn’s charming “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” to life. Crawford-Seeger’s bouncing “Rissolty, Rossolty,” Rautavaara’s atmospheric “Cantus arcticus: Concerto for Birds and Orchestra” and Smetana’s evocative “The Moldau” open the program.
