A Major-minor Mystery
A Major-minor Mystery is an exploration of music's major and minor tonalities disguised as a "whodunnit."
Chapter by page-turning chapter, the cunning and comical major-minor sleuth, Inspector Beckensteiner, investigates a concert where major suddenly becomes minor. The inspector suspects everyone, including the audience. The culprit is revealed in a surprising reenactment of the ill-fated concert.
Instrumentation: 3(pic),2(eh),2,2 - 4,3,3,1 - Timp +2, Harp, Strings, Narrator (acting skills recommended).

A Major-minor Mystery is season-neutral, but the photos below are from a Major-minor Halloween concert with the North Carolina Symphony.
