[email protected] Midsummer night’s dream Free classical concerts return to Miami Beach. BY DAVID ROLLAND A s summer starts, many might think the only symphony Mi- ami will get to hear in these hot months is a symphony of swarming mosquitoes, but Miami Beach Classical Music Festi- val hopes to fill the cultural void with a quar- tet of free classical music concerts this July. “At its core, Miami Beach Classical Music Festival is about making world-class music accessible to all,” Michael Rossi, the Miami Beach Classical Music Festival founder and artistic director, says in a press release sent to New Times. “Each performance is meant to bring people together through music, art, and innovation, while giving rising local talent a platform to connect with audiences in a real, meaningful way.” First up on the Fourth of July is the An- nual Independence Day Fireworks & Patri- otic Concert held at 8:30 p.m. at Lummus Park on South Beach’s Ocean Drive and 12th Street. Rossi will conduct the Symphony Or- chestra in unison with the fireworks show. Bring your blankets and lawn chairs to make yourself comfortable during enthusiastic renditions of patriotic music, like Tchaikov- sky’s 1812 Overture, the Armed Forces Sa- lute, and “The Stars and Stripes Forever”. Friday, July 10, and Saturday, July 11, at 7 p.m. at Emanuel Luxury Venue, 1723 Wash- ington Ave., will have two nights of perfor- mances of the opera “Cendrillon.” This French fairy tale by Jules Massenet is a Cin- derella story chock-full of romantic duets, as sung by the Miami Beach Classical Music Festival’s Opera Institute. That will be a busy weekend for Eman- uel Luxury Venue, as that Sunday night, July 12, at 7 p.m., will feature a full orchestra performing pieces by Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven. The night will be conducted by students of the Miami Beach Classical Mu- sic Festival’s Conducting Institute. Finally, Thursday, July 16, and Satur- day, July 18, at 8:30 p.m. at Temple Emanu- El on 1701 Washington Ave, will fea- ture “Celestia, A Symphony of Light,” where the festival’s full symphony orchestra performs Claude Debussy’s “Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune” and “Clair de Lune,” alongside Mau- rice Ravel’s “Daphnis et Chloé.” Beyond the sonic experience, the event will also take ad- vantage of the space’s dome with a light show that will be projected on the dome si- multaneously with the music. All events are free and open to everyone, but if you want VIP reservations or more in- formation, visit miamimusicfestival.com.
