The Summer Festival, June, Sitka "Three things keep me coming back to Sitka — the place, the people, and the family of musicians that I love making music with. Together they equal spiritual renewal." Jeffrey Solow, cellist
A
land of snow-covered peaks,
beautiful islands and spectacular wildlife where, each June, the
brilliant
artists of the The June series
will include eight
chamber music concerts equal to the finest heard anywhere in the world.
On stage the
musicians are framed by
a panoramic
window, through which audience members have a
magnificent view
of Sitka Sound and the mountains
beyond. Fishing boats glide by as eagles
perch on the nearby breakwater or soar magnificently in the
sky. The
beautiful music and fabulous scenery give audience members a unique
experience
and wonderful memories. The Festival begins the first Friday in June and lasts three weeks with a full calendar of events, including concerts on Tuesday and Friday evenings, and one Saturday evening performance.
