A dynamic 4-week music festival providing intimate access to the world’s best music in the heart of the Finger Lakes Region.
For more than 40 years we have brought some of the world’s most talented musicians to perform on our stage, with the hope of building community and enduring friendships through music. Our goal is to provide an experience that is inspiring, joyful, and engaging.
The Jasper String Quartet (“flawless…expressively assured and beautifully balanced,” Gramophone) leads a program of music inspired by local and indigenous cultures. Gabriela Lena Frank draws upon her Peruvian roots in Leyendas, inspired by the sound of Andean folk instruments; Chickasaw composer Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate gives homage to Hopi and Pueblo music in Pisachi, accompanied by projected images of the American Southwest; and Czech master Antonín Dvořák pulls out the stops in his energetic, deliberately “Slavonic” String Quartet, Op. 51.
Program:
GABRIELA LENA FRANK Leyendas: An Andean Walkabout
JEROD IMPICHCHAACHAAHA’ TATE Pisachi (Reveal)
DVOŘÁK String Quartet in E-flat Major, Op. 51 (“Slavonic”)
