Bear Valley News - Summer Music Comes to the Mountains

eClub Header

oars logo39th Annual Bear Valley Music Festival
Music comes back to the mountains this summer for the 39th season of the Bear Valley Music Festival. As usual, the festival’s spectrum will span pop, opera, show tunes, jazz and country/western music.

This year’s event kicks off with country music singer/ songwriter, Rosanne Cash, on Saturday evening July 28. And there’s more. Behind the scenes, the Festival is a largely volunteer effort. It hosts one of California’s foremost music camps for aspiring young musicians; offers creative
entertainment for children; and supports the visual arts (including a wildly popular annual art auction). Its “Broadway Pops” musical theater, operatic performances (“Merry Wives of Windsor” is this year’s treat), and symphony orchestra bring adoring crowds to the mountains year after year.

The Festival is an outdoor musical experience conducted under the shade of a 1,250-
seat tent. Granite peaks of the surrounding Sierra Nevada offer an unparalleled and
inspiring setting. Forested trails and streams are just feet away from the performances.

Exclusive Heavenly Photo Seminar

 
 
Hello, Tim!
 
This seminar is limited to 25 participants and is a rare opportunity to learn from world renowned photographers while gaining exclusive access to Heavenly Mountain.

Participants in the program will learn how to turn their photographs into works of art. Jon Paul and Ryan Salm, both having been named "Tahoe's Best Photographers", will help participants see Lake Tahoe through the camera lens, focusing on color, contrast, subject and more.

Day 1 with Ryan Salm
Access the mountain in places reserved only for wildlife. The day will start with an exclusive lunch, looking over Lake Tahoe at the Gondola Mid-station deck. After lunch a ride to the high alpine environment of Monument Peak where views of Tahoe, Jobs Peak and the Carson Valley will unfold offering unlimited opportunity for spectacular photography.

Camera in hand and his life on his back, Ryan Salm traversed over 30 countries on 6 continents. Journeys on back roads with the local people have created a common theme in Ryan's work. Radiant colors, vivid landscapes, and enticing faces are the cornerstone of his photography.

Ryan has published work in the Tahoe Quarterly, Canoe & Kayak Magazine and won an award at the 2005 Banff Film Festival.

Ryan Salm was named "Best Photographer in Tahoe 2006"


Day 2 with Jon Paul
Meet Jon Paul at his Gallery and then enjoy an exclusive after hours ride on the Gondola for sunset, an experience reserved only for the most fortunate. Jon Paul will teach the finer points of sunset photography as the sky explodes with color. Wine and beverages will be waiting along with a filling array of hors 'd oeuvres.

Jon's amazing eye for the natural world, and masterful use of 4x5 inch and 2 1/4 x 6 3/4 inch panorama film formats, composes idyllic images that enable all of us to "Bring Nature Home".

"The cumbersome nature of my equipment requires me to study my subject matter and plan well, resulting in stronger, more meaningful compositions. The large size of the film I use, along with the critical focus my bellows camera enables me to achieve and produce the largest, sharpest prints possible. This high level of quality results not only in a fine piece of art, but in the expression of the significance of nature I experience as an artist."

Jon Paul was named "Best Photographer in Tahoe 2007"
