SBC was one of only two Music Category recipients in the State to receive the funding, prompting immediate congratulations from Congresswoman Chellie Pingree.
“Salt Bay Chamberfest has enriched Midcoast Maine communities through music, art, and culture for decades. Thanks in part to this federal grant, this year’s 30th anniversary season is sure to be one for the books!”
SBC’s 30th season, Music in Blue, intermingles historical and contemporary works that exemplify the influence of blues and jazz on classical chamber music, together with music inspired by blue landscapes in nature and the visual arts. The festival will present the SBC commission and world premiere a new work by composer /pianist Conrad Tao, inspired by Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue.
