Artistic Director Joshua Major talks about the new season::"Welcome to Pine Mountain Music Festival's 2008 season! Our theme for 2008 celebrates the Festival's 18th year — 18 Years in Love with Music... We offer smaller concerts of new and old favorites. The Bergonzi String Quartet continues its relationship with the communities in the Western UP; Ana Vidovic, the international guitar sensation, returns; Louis Nagel performs an almost-all-Bach concert; Sarah Hughes offers stirring organ recitals and a workshop for area organists; our Resident Opera Artists offer a Richard Rodgers revue and they perform La Tragédie de Carmen, a highly theatrical and streamlined version of Bizet's Carmen with orchestra. The opera will be sung in French with English surtitles."
