Beverly Hills International Music Festival

The Seventh Annual Beverly Hills International Music Festival is delighted to announce its return in 2010, with summer evening concerts.

This ‘best kept secret' in Beverly Hills has been drawing music-loving audiences to evening concerts ranging from intimate chamber music performances from the classical repertoire, to contemporary music, choral and orchestral music, to works by noted Hollywood Composers.

Festival Artistic Director and Founder, Gregory Cherninsky, along with Temple of the Arts' Music Director, composer Sharon Farber, who is, for the second year, the Composer In Residence of the Festival, has put together an innovative concert series featuring both emerging talent and world-renowned musicians. Appearing individually and in groups, assembled from both the student and faculty Festival rosters, 60 musicians are scheduled to perform a wide range of music of new and old compositions.

One evening will be dedicated to compositions from top Hollywood Composers. Curated by Sharon Farber, ''Voices of Hollywood, Vol. 5'', will take place on the evening of August 14th. Original chamber music pieces by Film Composers will include works by Erich Wolfgang Korngold (The Adventures of Robin Hood, The Sea Hawk), Mark Watters (Tiny Toon Adventures, Aladdin and the King of Thieves), Alex Shapiro (Horses and Champions), Gernot Wolfgang (The Process), Bruce Babcock (Murder, She Wrote, Casper''), and Sharon Farber (When Nietzsche Wept, Runin' at Midnite') - all to be performed by some of Los Angeles' foremost musicians. Ms. Farber's piece, BRIDGES OF LOVE, will feature Grammy Award Winning soprano Hila Plitmann along with some of Los Angeles most distinguished musicians.

On the 15th, the festival will feature a concert of chamber music performed by the artists who participate in the festival. These talented performers are sure to present an exciting and ambitious program.
