It's no surprise that the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra's Music Director, Miguel Harth-Bedoya, was recently honored as "Texan with Character" by CBS DFW. "I am happy to call myself a Texan by adoption! All my children were born in Fort Worth, and we consider it home. It is a great honor to be considered a "Texan of Character,"" Harth-Bedoya says.
The interview aired on Jan. 17, but you can see the full feature online at dfw.cbslocal.com/category/watch-listen/texans-with-character.
"We are thrilled that his dedication to bringing great music and artists to the city of Fort Worth has been recognized with this title," says Amy Adkins, president of the FWSO.
The honor came at an exciting time for Harth-Bedoya, whose brainchild, Caminos del Inka, was performed for the first time at Bass Performance Hall in January. Peruvian-born Harth-Bedoya takes listeners on a highly acclaimed multimedia journey down the Incan Trail in Caminos del Inka while celebrating Latin American composers.
But that's not all. In May, Harth-Bedoya will also receive an honorary doctorate from TCU. -FWTX Staff
