Description
Since 1949, this summer event has attracted some of the world's finest musicians to help celebrate classical music. Students and masters work side-by-side to present concerts, which feature full orchestras and chamber ensembles. There are also lectures, classes and a host of children's events. The true beauty of this festival is the casual setting. Because of its mountain setting, the black-tie formality normally associated with such music is dropped. Many of the concert attendees even arrive on mountain bikes while dressed in shorts!
