There is no better way to celebrate the transition of seasons than with brilliant music in a beautiful outdoor setting. We are thrilled to return to the Schroeder Park Amphitheater for the fourth year in a row to officially kick off our 19th season of bringing fresh, dynamic chamber music to the St. Louis region.
For this annual late-summer tradition, our musicians will present a vibrant acoustic program featuring a rich blend of strings and winds. Designed to be casual and family-friendly, this performance invites you to experience classical music outside the traditional concert hall.
