2017 GUIDE TO FESTIVALS
Rockport Chamber Music Festival |
WHAT DISTINGUISHES THIS FESTIVAL
Part of Rockport Music, the 36th Rockport Chamber Music Festival is held in the intimate, seaside Shalin Liu Performance Center, which not only provides exceptional chamber music, but frames the performance with a view of the Atlantic behind the stage.
FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS
The 36th Rockport Chamber Music Festival opens with violinist Joshua Bell and continues with such artists as pianists Garrick Ohlsson, Joyce Yang, Russell Sherman, Charlie Albright and Gilles Vonsattel, as well as the Escher, Brentano, Jupiter and Jasper quartets. This year’s edition features a few of Boston’s finest, including the Handel and Haydn Society, Boston Camerata, the Lorelei Ensemble, and many more. Additional highlights include world premiere performances of works by Charles Shadle and David Alpher.
Artistic Director and pianist David Deveau collaborates with the Boston Symphony Chamber Players, violinist Andres Cardenes and cellist Anne Martindale Williams. This marks Deveau’s final season as artistic director; the event closes with a concert by Deveau and his trio, along with incoming Artistic Director Barry Shiffman. The festival also offers education and outreach programs, including a master class, open rehearsal, lectures, and a family concert.
