  Aspen Music Festival and School’s second annual Mariachi Celebration attracted hundreds of attendees from throughout the Valley. The concert began with middle and high school students who participated in a mariachi workshop, followed by Aspen Santa Fe Folklórico dancers and a performance by Sol de mi Tierra, a Denver-based group. The Aspen Music Festival continues with events every day through Aug. 20 and an overall theme of “Adoration of the Earth.” According to President and CEO Alan Fletcher, “it’s turned out to be a really powerful theme” which will be reflected in the world premier of composer John Luther Adams’ “Crossing Open Ground,” a piece with 40 wind instruments that will have the audience and musicians moving about during the performance on Aug. 6 at 2pm.
