Program Notes

PATRIOTIC CONCERT

For over 30 years, Bravo! Vail has honored our country’s birthday on July 4 with a heartfelt symphonic salute. In addition to classic tunes like Shenandoah and America the Beautiful, this year’s celebration recalls a 1945 USO tour when Frank Sinatra sang for thousands of American soldiers throughout the European theater. Military marches and beloved musical traditions honor the legacy of dedicated service, while iconic melodies by Aaron Copland and John Williams paint a picture of spacious skies and purple mountains majesty.
