Maestro David Stern, Music Director of the Israeli Opera  Tel Aviv will return to the Crested Butte Music Festival to conduct Rossini's Barber of Seville. With 4 performances on July 24, 25, 27 and 28th, Maestro Stern will lead our wonderful Festival Symphony Orchestra in this new production of Rossini's masterwork. Highlights of his upcoming seasons include his debuts with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and Haydn di Bolzano e Trento Symphony Orchestra and reinvitations to the Vienna Chamber Orchestra, Bayerische Kammerphilharmonie, Hong Kong Philharmonic, Ulster Orchestra and Guangzhoz and Shanghai Symphony orchestras. A native New Yorker, Stern conducts Baroque music with the same intensity as later repertoire, and is equally comfortable with period instrument ensembles as with symphonic orchestras.

Ben Powell To Host Gypsy Jazz In Paradise 2013

Ben

Ben Powell has already lived a couple of musical lifetimes during his 25 years - and in some ways, he is just getting started. His abilities as a multi-stylistic violinist have allowed him to perform with some of the world's greatest artists, irrespective of musical genre: from such pop and jazz icons as Paul Simon, Herbie Hancock, Gloria Estefan, Stevie Winwood, Philip Bailey and Rosa Pesos to internationally famous classical conductors, including Sir Roger Norrington, Marin Alsop, Yan Pascal Tortelier and Keith Lockhart. He's performed at the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics and the BBC Proms, and he is as familiar a presence at international jazz festivals and live music clubs as he is in the world of Early Music and the classical concert hall. As performer, recording artist, composer and ambassador for jazz and alternative string-playing, Ben transcends musical boundaries, and continues to pursue and fulfill his many musical aspirations.
