Music in the Mountains: The First Fifty Years of the Aspen Music Festival

by Bruce Berger

Music in the Mountains: The First Fifty Years of the Aspen Music Festival Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Reads like a Who's Who of classical music, featuring a parade of international greats — from Arthur Rubinstein, Igor Stravinsky, and Aaron Copland to Itzhak Perlman, Midori, and James Levine.

Book News Annotation:

Berger, a writer and pianist, charts the growth of the Aspen Music Festival from a tent in a meadow and rented teaching space to permanent performing venues and school facilities. Based on interviews with musicians, festival personnel, and members of the audiences, his account features the internationally famous musicians as well as students and enthusiasts who transformed this mining town into a world stage for a major summer musical event. Contains a section of b&w photographs.
