Kick off your summer with Mozart in the Garden! 🌼

Join us for special gathering that brings together the 2026 Young Artist Institute Faculty of internationally acclaimed artists—including CMNW Artistic Director Soovin Kim (violin), Jessica Lee (violin), Dimitri Murrath (viola), and Peter Stumpf (cello)—for an evening centered around the string quartets of Mozart.

Through live readings of selected quartets, the musicians will explore what makes this music so enduringly captivating and offer insights into Mozart’s genius and the art of chamber music. Audience members are invited to join the conversation through discussion and Q&A, making this a rare opportunity to experience these masterpieces from the inside out.
