The Chamber Music Festival of Saugatuck
in the News
Sunday, July 6, 2008, The Grand Rapids Press: “Cellists are musicians who need their space. That's physical space, not emotional space. Cellists are neighborly people who enjoy playing in groups. Last September, more than 200 were spread across a stage for a concert at the University of South Carolina. That's a sound that ‘makes your sternum rattle,’ said cellist Judith Vander Weg. No fewer than eight cellists will play together for the final program of the Chamber Music Festival of Saugatuck, a concert Vander Weg is looking forward to in mid-August. That's how the six-week season of chamber music will end. But it starts out with a bang this week with Darius Milhaud's suite from ‘La Creation du Monde.’” So writes Jeffrey Kaczmarczyk in The Grand Rapids Press about this season´s Chamber Music Festival of Saugatuck.
