2017 GUIDE TO FESTIVALS

Bay Chamber Concerts Summer Music Festival
Bay Chamber Concerts Summer Music Festival
WHAT DISTINGUISHES THIS FESTIVAL
Bay Chamber's Summer Music Festival brings five days of musical sparks to one of the most scenic coastlines in the world. The festival features fresh performances by world-renowned musicians, presented in intimate venues, all in a distinctly relaxed summer-in-Maine atmosphere.
FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS
Bay Chamber’s Summer Music Festival glimmers with variety. While you can get your Bach, Beethoven, or Brahms fix at the festival, you will also experience novel, one-of-a-kind creative happenings—musical flights of imagination for audience and artists alike. This festival shines a light on living composers’ work for dynamic percussion groups, or unconventional combinations of string instruments with guitars and electronics, or mind-expanding combinations of projected visual art with physical performers and classical musicians, or dazzling harpsichord or theorbo players performing in a recently written chamber opera. And Rockport, ME, is a destination with a craggy and rugged shoreline along a bay dotted with hundreds of uninhabited islands, and crowned by pined mountains. The musical venues are approachable, sometimes historic, and always New-England-beautiful. And this high-note of summer is famously laid back: Leave stodgy at the door, wander around with a glass of wine, and introduce yourself to the young artists who just lit up your senses, and your mind.
