Alessio Bax, known as "Bax Man" to - well - only me, actually
The 2008 Mimir Chamber Music Festival begins its 11th season of performances on Tues., July 3, with an all-Beethoven evening featuring works from the maestro's late career.
Texas Christian University once again plays host to the two-week festival, during which 18 young artist-musicians will participate in daily coaching sessions and Master Classes taught by professional guest artists and TCU faculty.
Celebrity guest artists include members of the Chicago Symphony, the San Diego Symphony and the Cleveland Orchestra, along with talented TCU School of Music faculty members. José Feghali, Van Cliburn Gold Medalist, and Alessio Bax, Leeds Piano Competition winner, are headliners. (Well, obviously.)
José Feghali, known as - well - José Feghali. To just about everyone.
The Beethoven performance, along with others geared toward the general public, will be held in the PepsiCo Recital Hall. The July 3, 5, 8 and 11 performances take place at 7:30 p.m.; there's a July 6 Sunday performance scheduled for 3 p.m. Tickets for each are $25 ($20 for seniors, students, faculty/staff and - what the? - Star-Telegram PressPass holders).
To purchase tickets, call 817-257-5443, or visit the Mimir Fest website and click on "TICKETS."
