June 26 – August 4: Each summer, musicians from the world's finest conservatories and ensembles gather in Brunswick at the Bowdoin International Music Festival. Concertgoers will enjoy evening chamber music at Studzinski Recital Hall every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, in addition to Sunday matinees on July 9 and 23. On July 14 and Aug. 4, Crooker Theater will host the festival orchestra alongside guest concerto soloists. Additionally, the Festival presents dozens of free student performances, masterclasses, and community events. Learn more at bowdoinfestival.org/events or 207-373-1400.
This special evening features works written within 48 hours prior to the concert start time. Exactly two days before, student composers randomly draw performer names and instruments out of a hat. Using the resulting instrumentation, composers are tasked with immediately writing a new piece of music for “guinea pig” musicians. Audience members will be treated to fresh and experimental music created specifically for this event.
The Festival is committed to providing its viewers with meaningful dialogue through music. Our free livestreaming program increases the accessibility of world-class chamber music to all. Thank you for considering a gift to the Festival to help us continue to provide livestreaming for free. Enjoy our free livestream at bowdoinfestival.org/festivalive.
