Come hear Chamber Music at Bethany during Thirsty Ears 2020 music festival!

Lawn Lounge wraps up its inaugural 2020 season with Matt Ulery's Pollinator, an ebullient program of swing music celebrating the spirit of the roaring 20’s, 100 years later.

Operatic favorites with soprano Alexanda Lobianco, tenor David Cangelosi, bass Nik Wenzel, and CM@B co-director Yasuko Oura

Feel-Good Storytime, an evening of tales and tunes featuring storytellers Scott Whitehair, Ric Walker, and Rebecca Anderson, flutist Jennie Oh Brown, and CM@B Co-Directors pianist Yasuko Oura and cellist Nick Photinos.

NOTE: CANCELLED

"Nationally acclaimed bluegrass multi-instrumentalist Chris Walz combines a joy of performing with a reverence for America’s musical story. Whether it is his lightning speed on the banjo’s fretboard, his hard hitting grooves on the guitar or his tender melodic touch on the mandolin, Chris delivers a fulfilling performance. His many years touring with bluegrass, Grammy nominated Special Consensus, honed his group and solo prowess. Chris is a gifted and much sought after teacher at the historic Old Town School of Folk Music and spreads his knowledge and love of music in each community he plays in."

This is going to be the absolute best music for a serious stretch-out on Bethany's lawn after a hard week of work, the kids, dogs, and your favorite beverage at your side. See you there!

We are kicking off our summer outdoor concert series with the Byron Oakley Horn Quartet. Come enjoy a fun concert on the lawn, safely socially distanced and wearing a mask. BYOB. Freewill donation: All proceeds will go to the musicians.

Our last concert on May 7, Empowered, will feature soprano Emily Pogorelc, praised for her "lively, incisive soprano" by the New York Times, in chamber music inspired by strong female characters. This concert will feature John Harbison's Mirabai Songs--Mirabai, a 16th-century Hindu mystic poet, was 27 when her husband was killed in a war. She refused to die on her husband's funeral pyre, as was the custom, and instead left her family compound, wrote poems to Krishna, and sang and danced them in the streets.
