Well, the 2009 edition of the Sunriver Music Festival is complete.\u00a0 I’m back home, the laundry is being done, the house vacuumed, and the obligatory pizza ordered for delivery.\u00a0 The final weekend of concerts was held at the Tower Theater in Bend, rather than the Great Hall in Sunriver Resort.\u00a0 This was due to the resort’s business being down by close to 30 percent, and so they couldn’t afford the $50,000 of lost income from taking the Great Hall out of circulation for our use for a second weekend.\u00a0 In addition, the board of the music festival were anxious to build their audience and sponsor\/donor base by tapping into the Bend audiences left orphaned by the sudden collapse of the Cascade Festival in spring of 2008.<\/p>\n

Each concert featured another of our fine principal players in solo roles with the orchestra.\u00a0 On Friday night, principal flutist Adam Kuenzel played Bach’s Suite No. 2 in B minor, BWV 1068.\u00a0 He played a modern version of the wooden flute that might have been much like what Bach would have heard (though it would be hard to imagine a Bach contemporary playing with as much technical and musical assurance as Kuenzel did).\u00a0 On Saturday night, principal trumpeter Jeffrey Work played an astonishingly musical and technically brilliant account of Hummel’s Concerto in E major.\u00a0 My wife said that Jeff is a string player in a trumpet player’s body, which is high praise coming from a cellist!\u00a0 It was truly some of the best trumpet playing I’ve heard anywhere – live or recorded.\u00a0 We’re so lucky to have Jeff in the ranks of the Sunriver Orchestra, and in the Oregon Symphony.<\/p>\n
