Alex Jiménez took some time out of his busy Blue Lake schedule to talk about the Festival Orchestra concert he will be leading on Saturday, July 4. As might be expected, the program is all-American: Morton Gould's "American Salute," the New England Triptych by William Schuman, "An American in Paris" by George Gershwin, and "The Stars and Stripes Forever" by John Philip Sousa.
One of Blue Lake's most popular faculty members, Dr. Alexander Jiménez is Professor of Conducting and Director of Orchestral Studies at Florida State University.
If you would like to join us on campus for this special concert, it starts at 7:30 in the Stewart Shell. The concert will be broadcast in its entirety on Blue Lake Public Radio starting at 8:00 Saturday night.
