Sixth Annual Beverly Hills International Music Festival

THE BEVERLY HILLS INTERNATIONAL MUSIC FESTIVAL RETURNS FOR SIXTH SEASON

—————————–

The Sixth Annual Beverly Hills International Music Festival is delighted to announce its return in 2009, with eight summer evening concerts, August 7th through August 17th.

This "best kept secret" in Beverly Hills has been drawing music loving audiences to a series of eight evening concerts ranging from intimate chamber music performances from the classical repertoire, to contemporary music, choral and orchestral music, to works by noted Hollywood Composers.

One evening will be dedicated to compositions from top Hollywood Composers. Curated by the Festival’s Composer- In- Residence, Sharon Farber, "Voices of Hollywood, Vol. 4", will be on the evening of August 12th. Original concert pieces by Film Composers will include music by Academy Award Nominated Composer John Debney (The Passion of The Christ), along with works by the late Michael Kamen (Lethal Weapon), the late Miklos Rozsa (Ben Hur), Peter Golub (Frozen River), Penka Kouneva (The Third Nail), Paul Chihara (Death Race 2000), Gernot Wolfgang (The Process) and Sharon Farber (When Nietzsche Wept).

For the first time, the Festival will dedicate one evening, August 13th, to the music of Israel’s Composers. Conceptualized by Ms. Farber, this event should prove to be a very dynamic experience.
