Summer Festival is Over....Looking Towards Winter Season

Hello BMF Supporters!!

It's been a while since the last blog but the last couple of weeks of the festival were hectic and fantastic! The BMF Summer festival ended with a bang! Asleep at the Wheel Sold out the Riverwalk Center to a standing room only crowd! The following night on the 21st was an amazing show with Soloists Kathryn Hatmaker on Violin and Michael Linville on Piano. The music was great and the crowd loved it.

The finale showcase of the BMF orchetra on August 22nd was a huge hit (as always) and featured Soloists Ken Krauss and John Klinghammer on Clarinets, Nathan Olson on Violin, and Megan Stout on Harp. It was beautiful show and it was sad to have to say goodbye to the BMF musicians....until next summer!

The Summer festival ended with a performance by George Winston. He put on a great two and a half hour show showcasing his different styles of music and jumping song to song from many of his albums. George is a very generous performer, and all of his merchandise sales he donated to support our "Music In The Schools" program that runs year round.

We are now looking forward to our winter series which is rapidly approaching! As of right now, it looks like we will be having around Six Classical Chamber concerts this winter and maybe even a Blue River Series concert or two!! Please check back on our website www.breckenridgemusicfestival.com in the next few weeks for more information on these concerts.

We hope the fall is treating you well and please keep checking back on this blog for more news from the BMF.

THANK YOU ALL FOR A FANTASTIC SEASON!!
