With concerts scheduled from January 10- 28, the 2012 St Barth Music Festival has some surprises up its sleeve.
The 28th annual edition of this festival, co-founded by Frances DeBroff, has performances at the Catholic churches in Gustavia and Lorient as well as the Anglican Church in Gustavia, AJOE in Lorient, and the main dock in Gustavia.
While the schedule is still being fine-tuned, highpoints include maestro Steven Mercurio, and a concert by mezzo- soprano Denyce Graves accompanied by Alex Klein on oboe, Wednesday, January 11 at the church in Lorient, (see complete schedule).
And for the first time this year, the festival will set up shop on the dock in Gustavia, with a free concert on Saturday, January 21, featuring two members of the American rock band Aerosmith: guitarist Brad Whitford and singer/keyboard player Russ Irwin.
Jazz, chamber music, and dance are also on the program this year, with dancers
