MORRIS – Magic Mountain Music Farm will be presenting its 19th Festival of Classical Music, Summermusic 2011, featuring The Millenium Strings at 7:30 p.m., Sept. 2-3 at the First Presbyterian Church in Gilbertsville. The concerts will be free to the public.
The concert will feature works by a variety of classical composers played by the students of Magic Mountain Music Farm. Each student will perform one piece with accompaniment by acclaimed pianist Cullan Bryant. According to Director Burton Kaplan, the chance to work with Bryant is extraordinary as he has performed all over the world.
Magic Mountain Music Farm is a practice marathon retreat designed to give students a chance to learn and practice with virtually no distractions, said Kaplan.
“If people can remove distractions, it makes them regular in their work,” said Kaplan. “They can support each other and it makes them more confidant.”
