With its 2020 season falling victim to Covid-19, The Highlands-Cashiers Chamber Music Festival casts its gaze toward a spectacular 40th anniversary celebration in 2021. For more information, visit h-cmusicfestival.org.
The Highlands-Cashiers Chamber Music Festival is planning a blockbuster season to celebrate its milestone 40th anniversary in the summer of 2021.
Some of the world’s finest musicians will again grace the mountains with their talents in a wide variety of creative programs and fun events in multiple venues around the area.
Among the favorites returning will be legendary violinist/violist Pinchas Zukerman with his Trio; recent Grammy Award-winning cellist Zuill Bailey; the magnetic Eroica Trio; and Norwegian violinist David Coucheron.
Making their Festival debuts in 2021 will be young superstar Ray Chen, violinist; Bluegrass master fiddler Mark O’Connor in a special “Beethoven & Bluegrass” program; harpist Bridget Kibbey (called “the Yo-Yo Ma of the Harp”); and the Hermes Quartet from Paris.
The Festival’s 40th Celebration will also include collaborations with The Bascom with an art exhibit and concert, classes about music with CLE and a very special event at OEI’s Orchard House at The Farm. Our annual Festival Feasts, Salons and Family Concert and Ice Cream Social round out an exceptional season.
Stay “tuned” for more exciting information about the 40th anniversary season, get complete information about the festival on its website at h-cmusicfestival.org, and follow the festival on Facebook!
