We invite you to join us for La Jolla Music Society’s reimagined SummerFest, August 21-30, 2020. SummerFest Music Director, Inon Barnatan, has assembled a small but mighty all-star roster of old friends and new faces to bring to life the most beloved pieces from the chamber music canon. Superstar cellists Alisa Weilerstein and Clive Greensmith, violinist/violist extraordinaire Yura Lee, and one of the most sought after violinists on the international stage, James Ehnes—all festival favorites— join GRAMMY® nominated violinist Tessa Lark and multi-talented bassist Michael Thurber in their festival debuts.
