All-Mozart Concert is Highlight of Bravo! Vail Festival

The response to the all-Mozart concert was overwhelming, I'd almost say electric! The chorus sang magnificently, having been superbly prepared by Roger Melone; before we played the encore, Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus, as Christopher Seaman recounted Schubert's observation that Mozart's music lights the way to a better world, you could feel an emotional ripple of understanding course through the audience. Then another thunderous standing ovation. Some of the audience said this event was one of the standout highlights of the festival's 18-year history.
