PUTNEY-Yellow Barn's June series continues with Young Artists Program concerts on Thursday, June 27, and Friday, June 28, including two daytime performances. All June concerts are free in the Big Barn.
These performances include masterpieces plus eight premiere performances of new works by young composers for their performer colleagues. These three concerts (June 27 at 3 and 7:30 p.m.; June 28 at 11 a.m.) are the culmination of a three-week intensive program for musicians ages 14–20 who travel to Putney from across the U.S. and abroad to live and work together on Yellow Barn's summer campus at the Greenwood School.
The three concerts include Beethoven's Violin Sonata in C Minor and String Quartet Op.135, Schumann's E-flat piano quartet, Bartok's third string quartet, Viñao's "Stress and Flow" for percussion quartet, and two piano quintets - one by Elgar and one by Shostakovich.
With just 75 seats in the Big Barn, reservations are recommended, but are not required. For more information, and to reserve tickets, call 802-387-6637 or visit yellowbarn.org.
