Aspen Nightlife – Harris Concert Hal


There is always something going on in Aspen,
Colorado and the Aspen nightlife is very active.
You can find a wide variety of things to do – but
if you want a little culture, you should definitely
find out what events are planned at the Harris
Concert Hall.

At the Harris Concert Hall, you will find
everything from Piano Recitals to Rock-n-Roll
Concerts. Events are planned well in advance,
so you should be able to find out what concerts
and events are scheduled to coincide with your
Aspen vacation.

The Harris Concert Hall is located in the West
end of Aspen, in a quaint residential
neighborhood. Due to parking and traffic
problems, you should strongly consider
walking to the concert hall. It is a short ten
minute walk from the downtown area. Other
transportation options include biking or taking
the bus. When there are events at the concert,
it is very difficult to find parking.

The Aspen Music Festival and School were
founded in 1949 by Walter and Elizabeth
Paepcke from Chicago. Many music
professionals train here and all of the school
and festival performances take place in the
Harris Concert Hall, which seats over 2000
people.

You should definitely try to visit Aspen during
the Music Festival. This takes place over a nine
week period in the summer, and there are
usually more than 200 planned events. People
from all over the world come to the Aspen
Music Festival, so be sure that you make your
plans and reservations early!

Another exciting event that takes place at the
Harris Concert Hall is the Aspen Film Festival.
This festival takes place three times each year.
The Aspen Shortsfest is held in the Spring. The
 Aspen Filmfest is held during the Fall, and the
Aspen Academy Screenings are held during the
Winter. Again, people come from all over the
world for these events, so make your plans
early.

The Harris Concert Hall is full of history, even
though the newest section of it wasn’t built
until recently. This is a major part of Aspen’s
history and culture, and you should try to attend
at least one event at the Harris Concert Hall
while you are in Aspen. Most events take place
in the evening; however there are also events
that take place during the day. You can check
with your lodge or hotel to find out what events
are planned at the Concert Hall each day. Also
inquire about the need to purchase advance
tickets for specific events.

Wish For Bangladesh

Bangladesh Informations

Bangladesh emerged as an independent and sovereign country in 1971 following a ninemonth war of liberation. It is one of the largest deltas of the world with a total area of 147,570 sq. km. With a unique communal harmony, Bangladesh has a population of about 142 million, making it one of the densely populated countries of the world. The majority (about 88%) of the people are Muslim. Over 98% of the people speak in Bangla. English, however, is widely spoken. The country is covered with a network of rivers and canals forming a maze of interconnecting channels.
Bangladesh has a glorious history and rich heritage. Once it was known as ‘Sonar Bangla’ or the Golden Bengal. The territory now constituting Bangladesh was under the Muslim rule for over five and a half centuries from 1201 to 1757 AD. Subsequently, it came under the British rule following the defeat of the sovereign ruler, Nawab Sirajuddaula, at the battle of Palassey on 23 June, 1757. The British ruled over the Indian sub-continent including this territory for nearly 190 years from 1757 to 1947. During that period, Bangladesh was a part of the British Indian provinces of Bengal and Assam. With the termination of British rule in August 1947, the sub-continent was partitioned into India and Pakistan. Bangladesh formed a part of Pakistan and was called ‘East Pakistan’. It remained so for about 24 years from August 14, 1947 to March 25, 1971. Bangladesh liberated on December 16, 1971 following the victory of the War of Liberation and appeared on the world map as an independent and sovereign country.The country is the pioneer in micro-credit concept for poverty reduction, which brought the Nobel Prize in Peace for the country in 2006.
