While the organist plays Paraphrase on a Trumpet Tune by Henry Purcell, the wedding party-mostly young friends and schoolmates of the bride and groom-will shepherd its charge up a 400-ft. marble aisle to a chancel large enough to accommodate a concourse of cardinals.

Yet Saratoga is awakening, to a different kind of tune. It lies in the midst of tfie finest concentration of first-rate music and dance festivals in the U.S., if not the world.
