I attended the “Hot Springs Music Festival” in Hot Springs, AR, way back in the early 50′s(I graduated high school in 1953).
I therefore really have no idea what it’s like nowadays; so you may consider my response for whatever it may be worth.
Hot Springs as you are probably aware, is a resort town: people go there for the wonderful Hot Springs. I can remember marveling at all the very expensive cars parked around town: I was a “farm boy” then, so was very impressed with all the rich clientele.
The music venue: the only thing I remember about the musical aspects of the festival – I’m serious now, it’s the only thing I remember – is that one of the bands, from Little Rock I think, rehearsing Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Scheherazade”: their expertise being a high school band, was remarkable; wonderful sound, I was in 7th heaven.

Both sound like wonderful experiences … we should have more of them around the country. Unfortunately, I can’t say I’ve been to either.
… my only clinics were in Jazz/Stage band.
