Making his OICMF debut, Robin Kesselman will be joining us this August on double bass! Robin has been principal bass of the Houston Symphony since 2014, and he has performed internationally as a soloist and as a chamber musician. You can look forward to hearing him play one of the most iconic chamber works for bass, Schubert's Trout Quintet, this summer along with many other performances throughout our season.

Check our social media pages tomorrow to learn about another artist who is making her OICMF debut as well. (Hint: Robin knows her very well and they play together often!)

Aloysia Friedmann, Founder and Artistic Director of the Orcas Island Chamber Music Festival, takes an interesting stance on concert-appropriate attire. She informed the general public today, "I thought, wouldn't it be great to see a little more vivacity onstage?" So now, does this mean that every OICMF musician must wear lobster hats while performing? We can't wait to see how this plays out!

The dynamic duo from Poland, Karolina and Iwo, are making their way around the San Juan Islands! It's been a successful start to their Musicians-in-Residence visit; they have been working with music students on Lopez Island and Orcas Island, and tomorrow they will be working with the students on Shaw Island. Some of you might have seen them at an Island Market pop-up as well!

More to come! 💙🎵
