SUMMARY:Marasco Young Artists’ Concert
DESCRIPTION:Now in its second year\, the Marasco Young Artists’ Concert gives talented local musicians the chance to perform for Festival audiences\, selected through open application. Details on how students may apply to participate will be announced on this page in January 2027. A cookie and juice reception will be held immediately following the concert\, giving our young performers a chance to meet their audience. \nThe Marasco Young Artists’ Concert honors the memory of Dr. Joe Marasco\, the Festival’s former Executive Director and a passionate advocate for music education and the next generation of musicians. Dr. Marasco believed young performers deserved real opportunities to grow\, perform\, and be inspired by live music\, not just instruction in a classroom\, and this concert was created to carry that belief forward. \nThis free event features performances by outstanding local student musicians and ensembles\, giving them a professional concert platform many young performers rarely have access to: a real stage\, a real audience\, and the same setting the Festival offers its professional artists throughout the season. For these students\, it’s a chance to test their artistry in front of a community that genuinely wants to see them succeed. \nThe concert reflects a core part of the Festival’s broader mission: supporting young artists through performance experience\, exposure to classical music\, and connection with mentors and peers who can help shape their development. We hope it becomes a meaningful milestone for emerging musicians in our community for years to come\, and that each year’s concert builds on the one before it. \nDetails on how students may apply to participate will be announced on this page in January 2027.

These imaginative projects have reinforced the Quartet’s reputation as an ensemble equally at home with the traditional repertoire and adventurous new artistic collaborations. \nThe Quartet has appeared on international radio and television broadcasts\, toured extensively throughout Asia and South America\, and performed with organizations including the New York City Ballet\, the Montreal Symphony\, and the Philadelphia Orchestra.

It has served as resident quartet at the Aspen Music Festival since 1974 and at the Manhattan School of Music since 1984\, while also holding residencies at the Taos School of Music\, the Peabody Conservatory\, and the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition.

SUMMARY:Festival Finale: American String Quartet and Beth Newdome Fellows
DESCRIPTION:The Festival Finale closes our 26th Season with the American String Quartet and this year’s Beth Newdome Fellows\, participants in the Christopher Rex String Seminar. The Fellows perform on their own before all twelve musicians come together for a thrilling finale. Please join us immediately following the concert for an artist’s reception at Amelia Art Studio.  \nSince its inaugural season\, the Amelia Island Chamber Music Festival has recognized the vital role of music education in shaping the next generation of artists. What began as masterclasses and mentoring through our Young Resident Artists program has evolved into one of our signature educational initiatives: the annual Christopher Rex String Seminar. \nEach year\, we invite exceptional string students from the nation’s top conservatories and universities to join us as Beth Newdome Fellowship Artists. This year\, student quartets from universities and conservatories around the country will spend an intensive week in Amelia Island receiving direct mentorship\, training\, and career development sessions from the American String Quartet\, working side by side with one of the most experienced ensembles in the country. Our Beth Newdome Fellows for the 2027 String Seminar will be announced in spring 2027. \nTheir training culminates in a series of public performances\, including community outreach concerts and this highly anticipated Festival Finale Concert. At this concert\, each student quartet (Fellows) performs a work on its own before all twelve musicians\, students and mentors alike\, join together on stage for one final Festival hurrah.
