Collaboration Between School of American Music And Michigan City Chamber Music Festival Brings Free Viola Concert to Michigan City

by Nic Orbovich | Jan 3, 2020 | Concert, Press Release

The School of American Music (SAM) will present “Viola Virtuosity!” featuring renowned violist and composer Rudolf Haken and violist/violinist Kunito Nishitani at a free concert on Saturday, January 25, 7pm EST, at the Converge Community Church in New Buffalo.

Mission

Inspired by the area's natural environment, history and the community's loyalty to the arts, it is the mission of the Michigan City Chamber Music Festival to enrich the culture of Michigan City by providing free musical performances by eminent artists.

Education

Committed equally to quality and education, the Festival provides classes for students and informal demonstrations for parents and their children. In achieving these goals, the MCCMF seeks to enhance the reputation of Michigan City and the surrounding areas as a center of cultural activity.

Another festival is approaching quickly, and I've scheduled our annual "operations team" meeting for Wednesday, August 1, 6:00 p.m. At 1st Presbyterian Church. We will discuss the upcoming week's schedule of moving church furniture, chair & stand needs, reception needs, clean-up needs, microphone and lighting challenges, etc. Let us know if you are interested in helping in this manner, or know of someone that could help. This is a good opportunity for students looking for community service hours, too, as we are fully 501(c)3.
