We’re at 6,732ft above sea level for our Strings Music Festival debut in beautiful Steamboat Springs! It’s always a pleasure to return to Colorado, which has a bit more topography than Illinois, to get in a hike and then play for what we’ve come to find are very thoughtful audiences.
For this cabaret-style-seated summertime concert, we’re offering two of the most compelling works from the French repertoire: Debussy’s unforgettable String Quartet in Gmin, Op. 10 and Henri Dutilleux’s mysterious Ainsi la nuit. The sheer beauty of these pieces is undeniable, and when heard together, the world around you begins to shimmer and seem somehow more luminous.
If you’re as eager as we are to return to the concert hall, we can’t think of a more sumptuous reentry.
