Last year, ~Nois performed "Night Music" by Irish

Last year, ~Nois performed "Night Music" by Irish composer Emma O'Halloran at the Detroit Institute of Arts with the Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival. The saxophone quartet filled Rivera Court with many different sounds and styles, exemplifying the dynamic nature of the instruments and contemporary music. The full recording of that compelling piece is on our YouTube now! Click the link in our bio 👆
Founded in 2016, ~Nois has received glowing praise for its “truly innovative musicianship” and “raw creativity” (Cacophony Magazine). ~Nois was the recipient of the Silver Medal at the 2017 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition and has premiered over 30 pieces.

We appreciate all the musician neighbors of the world who still provide us with the opportunity to experience live chamber music from the comfort of our homes. #nprclassical #npr

Today we came to the incredibly tough conclusion t

Today we came to the incredibly tough conclusion that our spectacular 2020 season cannot go on as planned in June 2020. This is not a decision that was made lightly, and the message is one that you have likely been expecting. The health and safety of our artists, audience and staff come first.

For 2020, dependent entirely on the progression of COVID-19, a late-August abbreviated Festival is under consideration in whatever form possible; details will follow when defined.

Alessio Bax is returning to Michigan for the 2020 Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival. He shares a warm message to the Festival family, along with a performance of the Bach/Marcello Concerto in D Minor BWV 974, 2nd movement.
Beginning his career in his hometown of Bari, Italy, he catapulted to prominence with First Prize wins at both the Leeds and Hamamatsu International Piano Competitions, and is now a familiar face on five continents. Bax is a staple on the international summer festival circuit, often alongside his wife and fellow pianist, Lucille Chung.

The Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival would like

The Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival would like to extend a warm thank you to you — our dedicated Festival family. Your support has allowed us to bring together world-class musicians to create an extraordinary cultural phenomenon, offering chamber music of the highest caliber right in our backyards. While we may be apart for now, we are looking forward to the day we all can come together at the Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival.

Violinist Tessa Lark is scheduled to make a return

Violinist Tessa Lark is scheduled to make a return to the 2020 Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival! Recipient of a 2018 Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship and a 2016 Avery Fisher Career Grant, and winner of the 2012 Naumburg International Violin Competition, Ms. Lark made her concert debut at 16 with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. A budding superstar in the classical realm, she is also a highly acclaimed fiddler in the tradition of her native Kentucky. Here’s a fun personal message from Ms. Lark and a sneak peak of what will be an incredible performance of Telemann’s Fantasia No. 7 in E-flat major.
