Cape Cod Chamber Music Festival

With the approach of the new year, our thoughts turn to the CCCMF’s 33rd season.  Although the program is not finalized as yet, we wanted to give you a little “sneak preview” of some participants who will be returning/coming in 2012:  The Tokyo and Borromeo Quartets will both be returning  along with other favorites:  pianist Brian Zeger, a former Artistic Director, and cellist Julian Schwarz. Frank Almond, violinist,  concertmaster of the Milwaukee Symphony and recording colleague of Brian Zeger will also be with us along with other outstanding musicians, newcomers to the Festival.  Our Co-Artistic Directors Jon Manasse and Jon Nakamatsu will, of course, be featured.  Stay tuned. 

A special note about the Tokyo String Quartet: as many of you have probably heard, two of their longtime players, violinist Kikuei Ikeda and violist Kazuhide Isomura will be retiring at the end of next year. This summer will provide a special opportunity to hear them.
