The Knights featuring Lara St. John on violin June 23, 2009

The Knights are a fellowship of young musicians of diverse and accomplished backgrounds who come together for the shared joy of musical exploration. The New Yorker says they are 'a little orchestra of some of New York's best strings-about-town.'

Featuring Lara St. John on violin. She returns to the Naumburg Concerts after her well received and much enjoyed performance of Vivaldi and Piazzola's Four Seasons, on July 25th 2007, with the Brooklyn Philharmonic. Critics have recently written about Lara -"Canadian Lara St John really gave herself to the piece and produced as fine a performance, occasionally throwing caution to the wind, as I have ever heard. The wind section must be mentioned here for it was magnificent throughout."
