International opera superstar Renée Fleming will perform at Grand Teton Music Festival (GTMF) on July 29 at 7pm. Guest conductor Edo de Waart leads the Festival Orchestra for this concert at the request of Maestro Runnicles who will be appearing at the Proms in London with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
Joining Ms. Fleming on stage is the Grand Teton Music Festival Orchestra. This unique ensemble, which is brought together each summer by Maestro Runnicles, is comprised of leading orchestral musicians from North America’s top orchestras.
Ms. Fleming, known for her sumptuous voice, consummate artistry, and compelling stage presence, has appeared in concert and in operas on every major stage in the world.
Ms. Fleming is among a handful of classical artists who have transcended her art to reach millions of adoring fans worldwide. A frequent performer at high profile events, Ms. Fleming was the first classical artist to sing at a Super Bowl (2014), performed at the Beijing Olympics (2008), and sang on the balcony of Buckingham Palace in the Diamond Jubilee Concert for HM Queen Elizabeth II.
Fans of the Metropolitan Opera’s Live in HD series also know her as a charismatic, charming host to these lavish, big screen productions.
GTMF presents exhilarating musical experiences, and reunites a celebrated orchestra of musicians with Music Director Donald Runnicles each summer. During its annual, seven-week summer classical music Festival, GTMF presents full Festival Orchestra concerts on weekends and smaller ensembles on weeknights.
