music@menlo

This yearly summer festival offers the highest quality of chamber music in an optimal setting. The professional performers are of world-class talent, and the tickets are priced similarly and may be hard to get, especially for the smaller venues. (The directors come from the New York music scene and draw musicians worldwide.) The festival also offers newly emerging performers who play with the special passion of those new to the music profession. There are also free concerts with younger performers who will amaze and dazzle you. In both cases, you will have the opportunity to witness the next generation of headline artists while they are still young.I feel privileged to have this festival in my local community. They issue their own recordings which you can check out on the web.

I am amazed when I see these young musicians perform. How can so much talent be in such a small person?

Music@Menlo is a chamber music festival. It brings the best musicians for concerts with imaginative programming of great music. It also offers free lectures and concerts. It creates a community of musicians and music lovers in beautiful settings. Well worth attending any of their events. Its farewell concert is August 13; there are many events through that date.
