Wheeler Cancels Irvine Meadows Date
Mezzo-soprano Kimball Wheeler has canceled her appearance with the Pacific Symphony July 4 at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre because of illness, an orchestra spokesman said Thursday.
As a result, the vocal selections originally announced have been dropped from the program. In their place will be “Four Dance Episodes” from Copland’s “Rodeo” and an excerpt from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “Carousel.”
Otherwise, the program, to be led by Jorge Mester, will be as announced: Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue,” with pianist Patricia Jennings; the Overture to Bernstein’s “Candide”; Sousa marches, and a fireworks display.
