A trip to the Brevard Music Center is quite a hike. But if you're willing to leave Winston-Salem around 9:30 or 10 on Sunday mornings through Aug. 10, you can attend an orchestral concert at 3 p.m., squeezing in brief stops for lunch and dinner along the way, and still get home at a reasonable hour.
I did just that on June 29. There were many reasons I made the trip.
For starters, the Winston-Salem area and Brevard have enjoyed productive musical ties over many years. Robert Moody, the music director of the Winston-Salem Symphony, studied at Brevard, and several instructors and students from area schools, including the N.C. School of the Arts, have found a summer home there as well.
Some of the most memorable moments from Evening at Pops are celebrated in this new Broadway's Best at Pops DVD which will make a great addition to your Pops collection.
