Miguel de Cervantes’s great novel, Don Quixote, in which the hero, disillusioned by tales of chivalry, sets out to right the perceived wrongs of the world, has inspired a wide variety of musical compositions, including ballets, operas and symphonic poems, from Boismortier to Ravel and from Telemann to Richard Strauss and beyond. Minkus’s Don Quixote centers on the episode of Camacho’s wedding. The misadventures of the deluded knight and his sidekick Sancho Panza are depicted with sparkling orchestration, lively rhythms and gentle romance.
