Scenes From Maazel's Castleton Festival

A few weeks ago I visited Lorin Maazel's Castleton Festival in Virginia. Maazel and his wife Dietlinde had a vision about starting a music festival on their own farm. And after a few years of development the Castleton Festival has become a major event. It features opera, concerts and chamber music and features some of the most talented young people on the planet.

My video this week is actually a slide show comprised of photographs taken by my wife Marita at Castleton. You'll see shots of the facilities and rehearsals and some of what can be seen at almost any working farm, including Castleton. And the zebra? Well, your guess is as good as mine.
