McCall SummerFest 2017: A Night of Romanticism Orchestra Concert
The final concert will showcase music by Leonard Bernstein, Maurice Ravel, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and more, along with selections from Georges Bizets Carmen Suites. Joining the orchestra throughout the evening will be violinist Tim Fain for what promises to be a special closing night.
Tim Fain has been a favorite at SummerFest since 2014. A dynamic and compelling performer in traditional works, he is also a fervent champion of 20th and 21st century composers. He worked closely with composer Nicholas Britell on the Oscar and Golden Globe-winning film Moonlight, creating the sound world and performing and recording the score, which received much critical acclaim. In March 2017, he performed the live film score to a sold-out audience during a special screening of the film in Los Angeles. Tim performed Resonance in a virtual reality music video in collaboration with Google. His latest CD, First Loves, was released in September 2015 and is a 2-disc set featuring some of the works that first inspired him, as a child, to become a violinist.
Presented by The Ludwig Family.
