Music Festival Features Top Acts in Spectacular Settings

The Lake Tahoe Music Festival 2010 season continues its summer concert series with another weekend of exceptional shows.

Simply Sinatra with Steve Lippia and the Orchestra Academy - July 29, 2010
7 p.m., Old Greenwood
This year we’re taking our Orchestra Night on a swingin’ ride…straight to the “sing era” of the 40s and 50s with “Simply Sinatra” starring vocalist Steve Lippia. He'll belt out tunes including "My Way," "New York New York" and "Mack the Knife," just to name a few. The festival’s Orchestra Academy, complete with 36 of the nation’s top student musicians round out the evening’s billing.

An Evening with Wynonna - July 31, 2010
7 p.m., Northstar-At-TahoeTM Resort
You asked for it in our annual survey and we listened! Join us for our first country concert starring Wynonna in a charismatic live show highlighting more than two decades of hits. Featuring songs from her 7th studio album, “Sing: Chapter1,” the evening showcases honest tales that speak to the heart and classic American songs of love, loss and survival all wrapped in with a little rock, folk, gospel, R&B and blues along the way.

Natalie Cole - August 5, 2010
7 p.m., Northstar-At-TahoeTM Resort
Combining R&B, jazz and pop sounds this nine-time Grammy Award-winner is an unstoppable force in music. Fans were touched by her “Unforgettable” duet with father Nat “King” Cole on 1991’s “Unforgettable…With Love,” and were equally enthralled by her 2008 release, “Still Unforgettable,” and 2009’s “Let’s Talk About Love.” It all takes place at Northstar-At-TahoeTM Resort mid-mountain in a gently sloping bowl and overlooking a breathtaking view of mountains and valley below.

Michael McDonald - August 7, 2010
7 p.m., Northstar-At-TahoeTM Resort
The festival’s summer concert series goes out with a dose of blue-eyed soul thanks to Michael McDonald performing August 7 at Northstar-At-Tahoe Resort. Honing his signature style while playing with the Doobie Brothers, McDonald’s laid-back California-style pop and rock is instantly recognizable and has won him a legion of adoring fans.
