Sunday evening (7/10),Michael Christie leads the Colorado Music Festival Chamber Orchestra in a performance of Eight Seasons, comprised of both Vivaldi's and Piazzolla's "Four Seasons."

As described by violinist and conductor Gidon Kremer, Eight Season allows you to "enter a world in which you don't think any more about the glamour of the music or music-making," but think of "the cause of music as a language, music as something that is electrifying, as something that reminds us of being alive." 7:30p at Chautauqua Auditorium in Boulder
