Strings in Nature

This concert is made possible through the generous support of Laurie Nicoletti.
Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the Norman Bird Sanctuary as the Festival Artists present a morning of delightful chamber music in perfect harmony with nature. Surrounded by the sanctuary’s lush greenery, this year’s Strings in Nature concert features Haydn’s String Quartet in F Major, Jean Francaix’s Trio a Cordes, John Blackwoods McEwan’s String Quartet No. 8, and Britten’s Simple Symphony. As the music unfolds, the birds may even lend their own melodies, adding a whimsical, enchanting layer to this peaceful outdoor performance.
