| |

"We are on a trip to many places this evening. The program is presented as a whole with no intermission, a rarity in my experience,. This is a perfect format for this particular program, as it gives as sense of roundness, much like our drop of water."

| |
| |
“Czech composer Bedrich Smetana’s ‘Moldau’ movement of ‘Ma Vlast’ receives no shortage of performances, but the orchestra gave a dynamic rendering of its anthemic melody and a sense of the river’s streaming rivulets with well-articulated, surging phrases. A similar commitment marked Mendelssohn’s tribute to the Scottish ‘Fingal's’ Cave’ from ‘The Hebrides’ Overture.”

MUSICIAN INSIGHT |
|
| |
Debra Biderman, Violin |
| |

"There is a hot water baseboard in my house that's always been a little leaky. Until last week, it was an annoyance. But after beginning the Water Winter Festival, I'm hearing rhythms in it that I never heard before.
"That has definitely carried over to the Best of Water program. I've known so much of this music all my life, but I hear the flow of the water in it now. I am really enjoying Jacques' interpretation of The Blue Danube.
"By putting a Best of ... program on the Winter Festival, I think it enhances what the festival can do thematically, and it also enhances what a Best of ... program can do."
