The Lake Champlain Chamber Music Festival is founded on the idea that bringing musicians, audiences, and students together makes not only for great music, but also for a rich and rewarding dialog for all. It is the Festival’s aim to inspire and nurture a lifelong appreciation for classical music throughout the community. We may have world-class musicians and incredible music, but what surrounds the music and the artists is community. We continue to be astounded by the enthusiasm and deep engagement of our audiences. In addition to a main summer concert series, the Festival presents Bach on Church recitals, masterclasses for aspiring young musicians, Listening Clubs and meet-the-artist discussions, and other events.
Upcoming Concerts
Winter Encore
Artistic Director and violinist Soovin Kim will be joined by the Old City String Quartet, and by clarinetist Romie de Guise-Langlois for the 2012 Winter Encore Concerts, featuring Bach, Schumann, and Brahms. Clarinetist Romie de Guise-Langlois, praised as “extraordinary” and “a formidable clarinetist” by The New York Times, brings her elegiac tone to Brahms's autumnal masterpiece for clarinet and strings. The Old City String Quartet, drawing from the musical lineage of both the Vermeer and Guarneri String Quartets, brings a youthful energy and musical conviction to the repertoire - this is a rising ensemble to watch and hear.
