Although it's several months off, I was just reminded of how much I look forward to the Opening Night of Britt's Classical Festival. It's a night of celebration and anticipation, as the members of the Britt Orchestra reunite for the first concert of the season. This year the orchestra will be joined by cellist Alisa Weilerstein on July 31 for Opening Night. I just read a performance review of Alisa in The New York Times. The reviewer called her "great fun to watch" and "buoyant and youthful" and said it was as much fun to watch her as it was to listen to her.

Alisa's energy and talent will be a perfect fit for what's always a magical night on the Britt hill. Take a look at the review.
