This year’s Chesapeake Chamber Music Festival will include 13 events: six concerts, five artist recitals and two rehearsals open to the public at no charge in locations across the Mid Shore. The festival takes place at various venues across the Eastern Shore from June 5 through June 19.
The 17 artists will include faces familiar to long-time Festival-goers, along with several newcomers to the Eastern Shore Festival scene. J. Lawrie Bloom, Principal Clarinet of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and Marcy Rosen, a founding member of the world-renowned Mendelssohn String Quartet, are the Festival’s artistic co-directors.
