We’re kicking off our 50th anniversary season with a neon-themed chamber crawl! If you have ever listened closely, you will have noticed that the old neon signs exhibited at the museum have a ‘hum’ to them. Using this as a springboard, our string quartet performs selections that incorporate or mimic this electrical sound to create an atmospheric experience for the audience.

Single Tickets: $40 for Adults, $25 for Young Professionals Under 40, $10 for Students and Children
General Admission Seating; Festival and Flex Pass holders receive preferred seating.
One drink included in the price of admission!

Join our concertmaster Celeste Golden Andrews and her fellow Summermusik musicians as they present works inspired by literature. Debussy and Vaughan Williams found their inspiration in poems by Stéphane Mallarmé and George Meredith, respectively. Walton’s musical setting of Edith Sitwell’s poetry was intended as an accompaniment of a recitation of Façade. Schubert used his incidental music to Helmina von Chézy’s play Rosamunde, Princess of Cyprus for his A minor quartet, and returned to Matthias Claudius’s poem, which he had previously used for the song of same title (D. 531).
