    If you were one of the200 plus people inattendance Monday

    night for the first Estesark Music Festival concertf the 2014 summer series,

    ou will without a doubt,nderstand why Beethoveneigns supreme among com-

    osers. You will also under-

    stand why the Beethoven5th symphony and in fact allof Beethovens symphonies,were held in awe by later

    composers who actuallyfeared to tread where thisgiant had stood.

    The orchestra for thissummer series is the Colora-do Music Festival Chamber

    Orchestra which comes tous now for the 38th seasonfrom Boulders ChautauquaPark. This summers series

    in Estes Park has only threeconcerts this year and judg-ing by the almost sold outhouse at the first concert,you will want to get yourtickets soon and not miss the

    next two concerts on July 28and August 4.

    But back to the Beethoven5th symphony, the most

    famous, popular and oftenplayed symphony in the clas-sic repertory. This is thesymphony whose first fournotes are familiar to every-one. But how many of us

    have heard a live, completeperformance of this oldwarhorse? We have to

    review frompage10thank our guest conductor,Larry Rachleff, for present-ng this work, which galva-ized the audience to imme-iate bravos and a standing

    vation. Even more impres-ive was the ovation fromhe orchestra, in the form oftomping their feet in tributeo conductor Larry Rachl-ffs electrifying, whiteeat conducting of therchestra.

    Very rarely is a profession-l orchestra so impressed byhat a conductor brings to

    he table, especially in a stan-ard repertory piece, toffer their own enthusiasticalute.

    Rachleffs reading of theeethoven was remarkable

    or his pacing of this work

    nd for creating and main-aining a steady tension thated to its release in the glori-us hymn of the final move-ent. He is also exceptional-

    y ar ticulate, summing up forhe audience in a few min-tes the overall structurend emotional thrust of the

    ymphony just before the

    erformance.

    But there was more to thistimulating program ofhich the Beethoven was

    the finale. The first part wasdevoted to music by French

    composers. Maurice Ravels

    Le Tombeau de Couperinwhich opened the concertwas a delicate and colorfulpiece of four French dancesdressed in elegant orchestralgarb which featured virtuosoperformances by the wood-winds.

    The soloist, soprano SusanLorette Dunn, who is alsothe conductors wife, sangsix French folk songs from

    the Auvrgne region ofFrance in that regions lan-guage.

    These pastorale andhumorous songs were richlyset with colorful orchestralaccompaniment by JosephCanteloube. Ms Dunnssplendid performance dem-onstrated her extraordinary

    ability to communicate withher audience with her crys-talline voice which was capti-vating to experience.

    This was the most stimu-lating opening concert ofany in recent memory andthere are two more to come.The next concert on Mon-day July 28 at 7:30 PM at the

    Stanley Hotel Concert Hallwith be an all Mozart con-cert featuring two Mozartsymphonies and a concertofor horn. Preceding eachconcert is a free pre-concerttalk by that evenings guest

    conductor from 6 -7 PM inthe Lodge building west ofthe concert hall. Tickets areavailable at McDonaldsbookstore.

    For the Trail-Gazette

    C

    harming -andCharmed!is how pro-

    ducer/director Elizabeth(Betsy) Blades Skinnerdescribes the upcomingproduction of Lerner andLoewes classic and bestmusical, My Fair Lady.

    We applied for the royal-ty rights and rentals from

    ams-Witmark Companyway back at the beginningof the year. A few weekslater, we received a formletter stating that while wecheck for availability,please peruse our list ofother musicals. Afteranother month of waiting, Icalled Tams-Witmark and

    was flatly told that show isrestricted and no rights arebeing given. When I con-veyed this information to

    our musical director, Mar-gie Patterson, she person-ally contacted someone

    with authority for fur ther

    information. That someoneturned out to be Sargent

    Abrom - the president ofthe company. With his per-sonal involvement, we weregranted the rights to MyFair Lady and are, in fact,the only community the-atre west of the Mississippi

    with permission (there area few professional equitytheatres - like the Guthriein Minneapolis/St Paul -

    who are mounting a pro-duction in the fall).

    The next blessing wasfinding an elusive butessential prop, BladesSkinner continues. A 1910RCA Victor Gramo-phone...it plays an impor-tant part in scenes whichtake place in Henry Hig-

    gins study. I could have

    rented one from a propscompany based in NewYork City, but with ship-ping costs, it was very

    expensive - and we are a

    fledgling non-profit com-munity theatre. Musicalsare very expensive tomount, and we pride our-selves on staying in theblack every show.

    So, back in April, I wasbrowsing for costumes andprops at the LongmontHumane Society Thrift

    Shop. I was looking at theracks of dresses, whensomething told me to lookup above at a high shelf -and there it was. TheGramophone. I couldntbelieve my luck. I grabbedit, put it in my cart andheaded for the checkoutline. But when I placed it

    on the counter to purchase,the clerk shook her headand said Im sorry - thatsone of our props and notfor sale. My heart sank. Ipleaded with her, told herall about why I needed it,etc. She paused and said

    let me get the manager.When he returned andheard my sad story, hesmiled and said tell you

    what - you can have theGramophone in exchangefor listing us as a sponsor.Done.

    There are several othercharmed blessings withthis production of My FairLady, including an incredi-ble cast, an amazing setthat includes a two-storyrevolving turn-table, fantas-tic costumes and gorgeousaccessories - all in a spec-tacular, unparalleled moun-tain setting. So, WouldntIt Be Loverly to Get Your-self To The Show, With ALittle Bit of Luck - and, ofcourse, a ticket!

    Performance dates are 7p.m., July 24-26, July 31-

    Aug. 2 and 2 p.m. July 27and Aug. 3. Tickets are $20adults, $15 seniors 65+ andstudents (with ID), chil-dren 10 and under, free.

    Eat real food. Thatsthe bottom line. Anopinion article thatwas forwarded to

    e, written by Mark Bitt-

    an, a contributing Op-EdWriter for New York TimesNow, inspires this weeks

    rticle.The question is, what con-

    titutes bad eating? Thenswer usually includessalt, fat and sugar, one orll. This trilogy of evil haseen drilled into us for

    ecades, said Bittman.We dont know every-

    hing about the dietary linkso chronic disease, but theest-qualified people argue

    hat real food is more likelyo promote health and lessikely to cause disease thanyperprocessed food. Bitt-

    an believes that it should

    e a national priority toesearch precisely whatauses diet-related chronic

    illness and that we shouldpromote a single, simplemessage to Eat Real Food.

    Think about it. Eating realfood solves the salt/fat/sug-ar problem.

    Most people believe thatsalt causes high blood pres-

    sure and exacerbates othermedical issues.

    A fact that we forget is thatprocessed foods supplymore than 80 percent of thesodium in the typical Ameri-can diet. Individuals eatingreal food need not worryabout salt intake.

    Most naturally occurring

    fats are probably essential,but too much of some fatsand most importantly, fats

    found in hyperprocessedfoods, are harmful and moreabundant. If you eat realfood your fat intake willprobably be fine, says Bitt-

    man.Sugar has come to repre-

    sent the entire group of pro-cessed, nutritionally worth-less caloric sweeteners,including table sugar, highfructose corn syrup andhealthy alternatives likeagave syrup, brown rice syr-up, reduced fruit juice and

    others.All appear to be damaging

    because theyre added sug-ars, as opposed to naturallyoccurring ones, like those inactual fruit, which are notproblematic. Although fruc-tose may be more harmfulthan the others, it could alsobe that those highly refined

    carbohydrates that our bod-ies break down into sugar(i.e. white bread) are equally

    unhealthy. These are hyper-processed foods. Bittmanstates that sugar is not theenemy, or not the primaryenemy. The enemy is hyper-

    processed foods, whichincludes sugar.

    Its a known fact that theUnited States is the worldsmost obese country, withcosts that could easilyexceed $1 trillion annually.

    There are no studies,large or small, that proposesto solve the underlying

    causes of obesity. If the solu-tion were as simple as salt,fat, sugar or the increasinglyabsurd sounding calories in,calories out, wed havemade some progress bynow. Bittman says that if wewant to balance the budget,Eat real food.

    A large part of our dietary

    problems might stem fromsomething as simple as theskyrocketing and almost

    unavoidable consumption ofcaloric sweeteners and/orhyperprocessed carbs,which are in 80 percent ofour food products.

    If we were to pick one ofthe three evils to target,caloric sweeteners areunquestionably it.

    Its well documented thatthey are associated withweight gain, Type 2 diabetesand many other problems.

    Bittman suggests that asoda tax is a good start and

    proper labeling would behelpful in this epidemic.Quite possibly the mostimportant part, which willtake a generation or two toget out of this mess, is torestrict marketing sweetfood to children.

    Eating real food is a gener-al solution.

    Food for thought. Realfood for thought. Have agreat week.
