- Bellinghamský festival hudby je festival klasické hudby, který se koná každé léto v Bellinghamu, v americkém státě Washington. Pořádá se již od roku 1993 a jeho ředitelem je dirigent Michael Palmer. V programu festivalu se nachází koncerty orchestrů a komorní hudby, které se konají v různých sálech, mezi které patří , divadlo Mount Baker Theatre, McIntyrova hala v Mount Vernonu nebo ubytovna White Salmon Lodge na svazích nedaleké sopky Mount Baker. Festivalový orchestrový sbor se skládá ze čtyřiceti hudebníků ze známých evropských i severoamerických sborů. Při festivalu s orchestrem vystupuje také festivalový pěvecký sbor, který se skládá z hudebníků z okresů Whatcom, Skagit a Snohomish, kteří jsou vybíráni každý rok. Ve článku z 13. ledna 2007 informoval deník The Bellingham Herald o tom, že kvůli nedostatku financí se podle organizátorů v roce 2007 festival neuskuteční. Další článek, který vyšel ve stejném deníku 17. října téhož roku ale odhalil, že se organizátorům podařilo dostat z finanční krize, a že se v červenci 2008 festival opět uskuteční. V letech 2008, 2009, 2010 a 2011 byl festival úspěšný jak po umělecké stránce, tak po té finanční. Svou účast na festivale v roce 2012 potvrdil houslista Joshua Bell. (cs)
- The Bellingham Festival of Music is a classical music festival held annually in Bellingham, Washington, USA, over several weeks during the summer. It was established in 1993, with American orchestral conductor Michael Palmer as its Founder and Artistic Director. The festival's programming features orchestral and chamber music concerts among its events, which over the years have been held at a handful of local venues including Western Washington University, the Mount Baker Theatre, McIntyre Hall in Mount Vernon, and the White Salmon Lodge on the slopes of nearby Mount Baker. The resident 40-member Bellingham Festival Orchestra is composed of musicians from major European and North American orchestras. There is also a Bellingham Festival Chorus which performs with the orchestra on occasion, composed of singers from surrounding Whatcom, Snohomish and Skagit counties who are selected by audition each year. In an article dated January 13, 2007 the Bellingham Herald reported that there would not be a festival in 2007 due to cash shortfalls, according to Festival officials. However, 9 months later, in an article published on October 17, 2007 the Herald reported that the Bellingham Festival of Music had successfully reorganized its fiscal affairs and that its concerts would take place again in July 2008, with its board of directors promising a leaner fiscal approach that would be less administratively top-heavy but would maintain high artistic quality, and that Michael Palmer, one of the Festival's founders, would continue in his role as Artistic Director. The 2008 and 2009 Festivals were successful artistically and financially. The 2010 and 2011 Festivals proved equally successful, according to Festival Treasurer Mary Pat Thuma. A virtual festival was held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2021 Bellingham Festival of Music took place July 10 - 18, 2021, with a shortened schedule and reduced orchestra. The 2022 Bellingham Festival of Music will take place July 1 - 24, 2022, with a restoration of the Festival's full orchestral forces and schedule. It will be Michael Palmer's final season as Artistic Director, after which he becomes the Festival's Conductor Laureate. (en)
