Episode 9: The Damnation of Faust

We're closing out our coverage of the Aspen Music Festival and School with an episode on their season finale, a rare performance of Berlioz's The Damnation of Faust. Both the composer and the fictional main character of the piece were passionate, larger than life characters - and The Damnation of Faust is a testament. This massive work, scored for a large orchestra and choir with four soloists, is sure to bring home Aspen's 2017 season with monumental force.
