Ever wonder how a symphony performance comes together? Come watch an open rehearsal of the Bellingham Festival of Music Orchestra and new Artistic Director Marcelo Lehninger. Observe the way adjustments are made to tempo, balance, tone color. Watch the interaction of conductor and soloist and orchestra. It's fascinating! Then come back that same evening and hear the finished product.
The program being prepared includes George Gershwin's Piano Concerto in F with guest artist Stewart Goodyear. Also the Dvorak Symphony No. 9 "From the New World." It's the one with that much loved slow movement.
