Cancelled: Colorado Music Festival at Boulder’s Chautauqua; Virtual Festival In The Works

POSTED BY
Laura

The 2020 Colorado Music Festival has been cancelled, but a virtual festival may take its place The six-week summer concert series was scheduled to take place June 25 through August 1 at Chautauqua Auditorium. Individuals who have already purchased tickets for the 2020 Festival will have the opportunity to support the Musician Fund by donating all or a portion of the value of their tickets. Individuals may also choose to credit their ticket value toward 2021 season tickets or receive a refund. The public can donate to the Musician Fund here.

CMF music director, Peter Oundjian, is working with artists to create a Virtual Colorado Music Festival. The virtual festival content will be released first to those who purchased tickets to the 2020 Festival and later to the public via the CMF website here.

“While we are faced with the disappointment of canceling this year’s Colorado Music Festival, we are grateful to have the opportunity to offer a virtual festival. Without exception, the musicians I’ve spoken to are eager to participate,” said Oundjian.

“We hope people might consider donating to the Musician Fund. We are determined to support our musicians through this period, which is so challenging for so many, and certainly those in the performing arts.”

Oundjian is working to determine all of the content for the virtual festival, but it’s likely to include the following. 

  • Colorado Music Festival Orchestra musicians from cities such as Charlotte, Phoenix and San Antonio performing masterpieces of the chamber music repertoire
  • A special evening with pianist Jan Lisiecki featuring some of his favorite piano works alongside a conversation with Oundijian
  • A performance by Augustin Hadelich, violinist, possibly taking place from Oundjian’s Connecticut home
  • A performance and discussion with the St. Lawrence String Quartet and the legendary John Adams, CMF 2020 Composer-in-Residence
  • An evening with the Juilliard String Quartet to commemorate Robert Mann, the founding first violinist of the quartet, whose 100th birthday would have been this July
  • A performance by the Takács Quartet, marking the debut of their new violist, Richard O’Neill

Full information about the Virtual Colorado Music Festival will be released when available. For updates go here.
