Mozart on The Mountain Cancelled for 2008

Unfortunately it is reported that Mozart on the Mountain has been cancelled for 2008. The Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra is usually on hiatis at that time and they found that even with the huge attendance they are not breaking even financially after all is said and done. It is too bad as it was a great event.
