5th Annual International Chamber Music Festival at Oxmoor Farm, June 4-7

Oxmoor Farm is proud to present the Fifth Annual International Chamber Music Festival. The Festival will be held June 4-7. Musicians from across the globe will gather at Oxmoor to perform works by familiar composers including Bach, Mozart, Ravel, and Dvorak, as well as music by more contemporary composers such as Albert Bliss and Benjamin Britten in a series of four concerts over three days. The library at Oxmoor Farm is the type of intimate setting for which the repertoire was written, rather than a concert hall.

In addition to music, the festival will also feature pre-concert cocktail, bourbon & wine receptions, and a gala dinner in the library with the musicians prepared by award-winning chef Joshua Moore of Volare Italian Ristorante. We are thrilled Chef Moore is returning for a fourth year!

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!!! - Last year we offered two post-concert events on Thursday evening - a bourbon/chocolate pairing or bourbon/cigar pairing that were a big hit, so they are back again this year! These post-concert offerings are $35. This optional ticket can be purchased as an add-on to the Thursday evening concert and will take place at the conclusion of the performance. Bourbon expert Susan Reigler will lead the bourbon/chocolate pairing.

TICKET PRICES: You can purchase tickets for each concert individually ($55 per ticket per concert) or you can purchase an All Festival ticket to the Oxmoor Farm International Chamber Music Festival for $150. The All Festival ticket will admit you to all 4 concerts over the weekend. You can add-on the gala dinner that will be held on Sunday, June 7, for $100.
