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 dialogue for all. It is the Festival’s aim to inspire and nurture a lifelong appreciation for classical music throughout the community. We have world-class musicians and incredible music, but what surrounds the music and the artists is community. The enthusiasm and deep engagement of our audiences continues to astound us. In addition to a main summer concert series, the festival presents Bach-in-Church recitals, master classes for aspiring young musicians, festival seminars and meet-the-artist discussions, and other events.
