Artistic Director
Peter Sulski
This 2 week-long Chamber Music Festival is a non-competitive but intensive chamber music
program for string players, woodwinds and and pianists age 12 and up, including adult amateurs.
The Festival was founded in 2005, after Erick Parris, Chairman of the Thayer Performing
Arts Center, invited QX, the string quartet comprised of violinists Krista Buckland Reisner
and Rohan Gregory, violist Peter Sulski and cellist Jan Muller-Szeraws, to build a Chamber
Music Festival serving the Lancaster region of Massachusetts. This year, the Festival also
includes Mark Berger, Jonathan Yasuda  and Ian Watson  as Faculty.  Soprano Maria
Ferrante will also join the Festival in concert on July 15 and July 22.  Each chamber music  
session culminates with a participant concert, open to the public, held on July 18 and 25 at 3:00,
also in the Red Room at TPAC.
