MountainTop Masterworks III: Joy, Dance & Drama – Beethoven’s 7th & More

Saturday, July 20, 7:00 pm*

Guest conductor Louis Lohraseb makes his Wintergreen debut leading the Wintergreen Festival Orchestra in Beethoven’s fiery, moody, and epic Symphony No. 7 from the mountaintop. Naturally, we’ve paired the symphony with music of Atlanta native Carlos Simon, whose piece Fate Now Conquers was inspired by a journal entry from Beethoven’s notebook and is representative of the “unpredictable ways of fate.” And don’t miss the captivating rhythms of Shostakovich’s first cello concerto, performed by Wintergreen’s own David Bjella – you will almost certainly be dancing from your seat!

Please note: *New concert start time. The Sunday performance of this concert includes a pre-concert talk (beginning at 2:00 pm) with guest conductors to add color and perspective to your concert experience.
