Britt Music & Arts Festival Live Music: Huynh Conducts Copland, Bartók, & Stravinsky

Surrounded by the stunning views and ponderosa pines of Britt Hill, experience two of the 20th century’s most irresistible ballet scores: Aaron Copland’s Appalachian Spring, a tender portrayal of love and pioneer life in small-town America, and Béla Bartók’s suite from The Miraculous Mandarin, which recounts a supernatural tale of lust, violence, and redemption. Plus, violinist Simone Porter showcases her “lovingly lyrical, occasionally frisky playing” (Los Angeles Times) in Igor Stravinsky’s bubbly Violin Concerto and Maurice Ravel’s Tzigane, inspired by the breathtaking virtuosity of Romani folk musicians.
