Leonard Bernstein, whose music graced the stage of the very first Moab Music Festival in 1993, is in the spotlight at the intimate and elegant setting of the House Concert. Bernstein’s legacy is intact as a great composer, conductor, pianist, author, and educator.

Jamie Bernstein, the author of the memoir “Famous Father Girl”, and the Maestro’s eldest daughter joins us, narrating the background stories on Anniversaries—short piano pieces given as gifts to Bernstein’s family, close friends, and colleagues.

Who were the beneficiaries, and what role did they play in his life? Arias and Barcarolles, Bernstein’s final work, explores many perspectives of the American family in a song cycle for mezzo-soprano, baritone, and piano 4-hands.

About the venue: One of Moab’s most beautiful private homes provides the intimate location for a memorable evening of music and fine food. This lively occasion offers an exceptional opportunity to experience a performance up close, followed by a celebratory dinner.
