Festival Update

Sara Stalnaker reports that she has been performing this month as part of Montana’s annual Chamber Music Festival in Bozeman. She most recently performed Mendelssohn’s Octet with members of the Muir and Cascade String Quartets at Georgetown Lake. She regrets that she has no photos to send in at this time!

Meanwhile, Heath attended his first concert at Marlboro Music School and Festival in Brattleboro, Vermont, where he ran into old friend and CMW artistic advisor Jonathan Biss. What an incredible environment, where young professionals of immense talent share the stage with master teachers and performers (Richard Goode, Charles Neidich, Arnold Steinhardt, Kim Kashkashian). The combination of the creativity and enthusiasm in the performers and the receptive appreciation of the knowledgeable audience was rejuvenating.
