2009 Summer Season

Celebrating Our 23rd Season!

Last summer Jim Edwards of the Beacon News wrote: “Why is the Woodstock Mozart Festival successful year after year?

“Go anywhere you might think of in the summer to hear Mozart and you will not encounter a more illustrious body of musicians nor more passionate performances. If you like Mozart, here is a Mozart Festival to call your own.”

Now you have the opportunity to call the Festival your own - to be thrilled by its irresistible performances! How? … when you purchase tickets for the Woodstock Mozart Festival.

Also, don’t miss the additional Duo-piano Recital on Saturday, August 1st at 2:00, the Chamber Music Sampler Concert on August 15th at 2:00, and the Master Class with duo-pianists Genova and Dimitrov on August 16th at 5:00.

Order NOW to ensure that your preferred seats will be available for performances that have prompted enthusiastic responses not only from Mr. Edwards, but also from many others.
