This event and The Marriage of Figaro (August 3) is to benefit the Arts scene of Crested Butte and provide performance opportunities for musicians and singers. Singers making up the chorus are Gunnison County residents as well as guests from the Front Range. Totally Mozart is being produced by Double D Productions, the mother-daughter duo of Elizabeth and Emily Bond.
Musicians from around the country are coming to Crested Butte for this splendid performance of Totally Mozart! Many of our guest musicians have performed in the past with the Crested Butte Music Festival, and all are noteworthy musicians in their home states, performing with ensembles including the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra, The Florida Orchestra, the Knoxville Symphony, Western State University, and the Colorado Springs Philharmonic.
Derek Carden, longtime friend of Crested Butte, renowned conductor and organist, flies in from London, UK to conduct this production. Throughout the last 20 years, Derek has worked with the Crested Butte Mountain Theatre, Crested Butte Music Festival, and performed at the UCC and Center for the Arts.
