Captured live at the
Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts,
SummerScape at Bard College
This was a fun two weeks at Bard College. The college was founded in 1860 and is located in one of the most beautiful areas in the world. The campus is at Annandale-on-Hudson in upstate New York and overlooks the Hudson River. I could see the Catskills from my dorm room. Bard is in the Hudson River Historic District, a National Historic Landmark.
The Richard B. Fisher Center was designed by Frank Gehry, During July and August, the Fisher Center produces SummerScape, including the annual Bard Music Festival and seven weeks of opera, dance, music, theater, cabaret, and film. This year we did Dimitrij by Dvořák. I fell in love with the music and with Bard.
