Ghent to tribute Mingella

Music-themed Ghent fest will put on a unique musical tribute to the late Anthony Mingella.  Mingella's longtime collaborator, Gabriel Yared (pictured), will conduct a concert featuring suites that Yared composed for "Cold Mountain," "The Talented Mr. Ripley," and from his Oscar-winning score for "The English Patient."  It will be performed by a chamber orchestra and a soprano solo to keep it intimate.  Members of Mingella's family will attend.

Ghent will also showcase four other concerts. Kadril will perform pieces from "Brokeback Mountain," "Shakespeare in Love," and "Barry Lyndon" followed by concerts with Tuur Florizoone ("Moscow, Belgium"), Oscar winner Dario Marianelli ("Atonement") and composer Angelo Badalamenti ("Twin Peaks," "The City of Lost Children," "Mulholland Drive").
