The Craftsbury Chamber Players begin their six-week summer festival on Thursday, July 15 at 7:00 pm performing from their concert trailer on Craftsbury Common. Throughout the summer the concerts explore the influence of folk traditions and popular music on chamber music. The program begins with two Renaissance Fantasias by Orlando di Lasso, moves to 3 canonic puzzles by J.S. Bach, before swinging into a setting of the spiritual "Great Day" by Adolphus Hailstorck. Then comes some Chinese and Danish folk music followed by a set of "Gypsy" pieces by Franz Joseph Haydn, Vittorio Monti, and Johannes Brahms.

Performers are Mary Rowell and Darryl Kubian, violins, Liuh-Wen Ting, viola, Frances Rowell, cello, and Mary Jane Austin, piano. There is no admission fee but donations will be gratefully accepted.
