10am: Music on the Green: John Fog and Carolyn Berns

Join us every Wednesday morning this summer for our weekly free concert series, co-presented by the Yampa River Botanic Park. With concerts lasting just 45 minutes, it's the perfect way to enjoy a summer morning.

To kick-off the 2024 Music on the Green Series, we have Carolyn Berns and John Fog! Carolyn is a classically trained acoustic and electric violinist. Performing with professional orchestras around the country as well as recording studios, vocals and violin have been her life as long as she can remember.

John picked up the guitar while working on a ranch 30 miles outside Pinedale, Wyoming. There was no electricity and few distractions, so he dedicated the evening hours to learning. He now plays a blend of covers and originals in the Americana vein.

7pm: Twilight Yoga

Bring your yoga mat and bug spray to sunset classes in our beautiful Festival Park. Teachers from Harmony Yoga lead all-levels classes to the sounds of Strings’ classical evening concert. Harmony classes focus on breath for grounding, movement for alignment of energy and extra long savasana for embodiment of our practice. Following the event, join your fellow yogis in a non-alcoholic drink reception as the sun sets on Mt. Werner. Come for the yoga, stay for community connection. Dress in layers for varying weather.

All ages welcome. $10 suggested donation benefits Strings.

7pm: Classical Piano Trio and Quintet

Starts at $35

Delight in the refined and witty classical style as it unfolds in the intimacy of small ensembles. The great master of conversational music, Haydn, is showcased in a movement of poise and grace. Schubert and Rossini bring their unique voices to the event, each in their own configuration of instruments. The evening culminates with Hummel’s Quintet for piano, violin, viola, cello, and double bass, a true charmer that is sure to captivate.
