Last night was incredible -- a full house at the Jamaica Town Hall with beautiful music. We're already talking about all the ways next year can be even better. On a personal note, the end of PFCM is always a little sad... I miss Vermont throughout the year; I miss the musicians and the music, and I miss the Southern Vermont community.  We loved the housing for this year; it was wonderful to be spread throughout the valley, and we're so grateful to the generous gift of housing so many of you were able to offer. If you think you might be willing to house PFCM musicians or staff next summer, please let us know! Just send me an email at [email protected] to let us know; don't worry -- it's not a commitment yet, but we'd just be in touch once we're planning next year's details to see if you're able to offer housing.
As we finish up the summer's finances, we'd still love your donation! Fundraising for PFCM is by far the largest administrative concern -- we're almost at the no-worries moment, and your support would help us cross that final budgetary line. Thank you once again... what a perfect week. Tonight is the last concert of the 2025 Pikes Falls Chamber Music Festival! We're so looking forward to playing for you tonight at 7pm at the Jamaica Town Hall. You'll hear music by Astor Piazzolla, Sergei Prokofiev, Frank Martin, Gyorgy Ligeti, and PFCM's own composer-in-residence Nathan Lincoln-Decusatis. Reserve the best seats in the hall! We're also happy add to our swag! In addition to the standard mugs, stickers, t-shirts, and pencils, we have PFCM's 2025 posters on sale at the Town Hall tonight. They're available in two different sizes, and you'll be able to purchase them from Avery before/during/after the concert. As another wonderful summer of PFCM wraps up, we're already talking about plans for next year. Each year feels better than the last, and every summer here in southern Vermont is perfect -- full of peace, joy, music, and community. See you tonight!  We had such a fantastic time playing at the Grafton Community Church last night. Thank you to everyone who came out to listen. What a beautiful town -- and for the first time in recent memory, it wasn't a torrential downpour on the way home!  We're looking forward to playing for residents at Bromley Manor this afternoon, and then to our final concert at the Jamaica Town Hall tomorrow (Saturday) at 7pm. Hope to see you there!
Massive thank you to Jesse Lepkoff and Ensemble Amphion Baroque for a tremendous concert last night. The whole concert was fantastic, and the dancing finale on-stage at the Jamaica Town Hall was extra special.  Tonight, come to the Grafton Community Church for a concert at 7pm. The program features the Pikes Falls Musicians playing music by our own Thomas Schuttenhelm, as well as Luigi Boccherini, Arthur Foote, Eliza Brown, and Claude Debussy. Reserve a ticket here!  |
