BLOSSOM MUSIC FESTIVAL STUDENT/FACULTY CONCERT & PLAY
IN FOLLOWED BY THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA IN CONCERT. On
Sunday, July 25th, we will travel to the famous Blossom Music Center, the beautiful summer home of the Cleveland Orchestra.
IMF will present an hour-long solo and play-in concert at 5:30. This concert will be preceded by an Opening Ceremony
at 5:00 with introduction of the faculty and staff. The final portion of the concert will be a walking
play-in by violin, flute, and guitar students performed for thousands of audience members on the Blossom Festival grounds.
This will be followed by a program by the extraordinary Cleveland Orchestra, often mentioned as one of the world's greatest,
at 7 PM. We are very lucky to have the cooperation of the Cleveland Orchestra Educational Division in being able to get
tickets in the very first rows of the pavilion for about half price. The pavilion seats 8,000 so we are so pleased to offer
you this rare and thrilling opportunity of being right in front of the orchestra if you choose pavilion seats. Ticket prices
are $22 for ALL seats for the pavilion. Prices for lawn admission is $18 for adults, free for children ages 12 and younger. For more details about the program click on the following link. DAILY SCHEDULE OF EVENTS GOODTIME III LAKE ERIE/CUYAHOGA BOAT CRUISE
