7:00 p.m: Film Screening: Maestro at Star Hall
The film Maestro created a sensation when it came out last fall. This fearless love story chronicles the relationship between the legendary Leonard Bernstein and his wife, Felicia Montealegre Cohn Bernstein.
Leonard Bernstein was a global force during his life and has influenced and shaped the Moab Music Festival throughout its history. Michael Barrett, the Festival’s Co-Founder and Music Director, was Bernstein’s assistant conductor for six years, until Bernstein’s death in 1990.
During the Festival’s first season in 1993, Bernstein’s work was featured prominently - including a program dedicated to his music, a reading by Bernstein’s biographer, Humphrey Burton, and a screening of an interview on the making of West Side Story.
Jamie Bernstein, his eldest daughter, has been an ongoing presence throughout Moab Music Festival’s history and returns this year to perform at the House Benefit Concert. Click here for more information and tickets.
In this screening and talk, Moab gets a personal look at Bernstein’s glittering historical figure, including firsthand stories and memories from Jamie Bernstein, Artistic Director Leslie Tomkins, and Michael Barrett.
