Summer Festival at The Huntington: Concert 3 August 7, 2010

The 2010 Southwest Chamber Music Summer Festival at The Huntington resumes on the Loggia of The Huntington Art Gallery. This popular rite of summer will feature a major work on each weekend by prominent women composers Thea Musgrave, Gabriela Ortiz, Anne Le Baron and Alexandra du Bois. New this summer - patrons can bring their own picnic to enjoy on the lawn. Also available are pre-concert full service dinners in The Huntington Tea Room, available when concert tickets are purchased, making our festival a perfect way to spend a summer evening. These regularly sold-out concerts will take place on July 10, 11, 24, 25 and August 7, 8, 21, 22 at The Huntington in San Marino on Saturday and Sunday evenings at 7:30 p.m.

~ Concert 3 ~ Spending a summer evening with French Impressionist masters Debussy, Satie and Ravel
creates a vivid sonic backdrop for the vibrant world of 'Solar Music' by Anne Le Baron. Her music embraces an exotic array of subjects encompassing vast reaches of space and time, ranging from the mysteries of Kazakhstan, to probes into physical and cultural forms of extinction, to legendary figures such as Eurydice, and the American housewife.
