SALT LAKE CITY – Utah Symphony | Utah Opera’s Deer ValleyÒ Music Festival continues its summer festivities with Disney in Concert: Magical Music from the Movies on Friday, July 23 at 7:30 p.m. and Tad Calcara and the New Deal Swing on Saturday, July 24 at 7:30 p.m. at the Deer ValleyÒ Snow Park Outdoor Amphitheater.

July 21, Prokofiev’s First Violin Concerto
In the stunning St. Mary’s church, Assistant Conductor David Cho leads the Utah Symphony in a concert featuring violinist Yoonshin Song performing Prokofiev’s virtuosic First Violin Concerto. The program also includes Schumann’s vivacious “Spring” Symphony (Symphony No. 1) and Ravel’s Pavane for a Dead Princess.

July 22, Imani Winds
Imani Winds has established itself as more than a wind quintet. Since 1997, the Grammy nominated ensemble has taken a unique path, carving out a distinct presence in the classical music world with its dynamic playing, culturally poignant programming, genre-blurring collaborations, and inspirational outreach programs. With two member composers and a deep commitment to commissioning new work, the group is enriching the traditional wind quintet repertoire while meaningfully bridging European, American, African and Latin American traditions.

July 23, Disney in Concert: Magical Music from the Movies
Enchantment explodes when the magic of Disney meets the Utah Symphony in the magnificent setting of Deer Valley Resort. Priced right for families ($15 for adults, $5 for students and children), this fun evening features popular Disney tunes with vocalists and videos to make the evening complete.

July 24, Tad Calcara and the New Deal Swing with the Utah Symphony
Utah Symphony’s principal clarinet Tad Calcara and his band New Deal Swing will bring Big Band sounds to the mountains of Park City with the music of Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw and more.
