In a once-in-a-lifetime experience, Michael Francis leads TFO’s first-ever performance of Wagner’s The Ring Without Words. Wagner’s Ring cycle of operas typically takes about 15 hours to perform over several days, but this version by Lorin Maazel is an ingenious synthesis of all the greatest music – including Ride of the Valkyries – into an orchestral tour de force lasting just over an hour. We will provide the narrative onscreen so you can follow along with the epic saga. Rounding out the program is Dejan Lazic in Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 20, a powerful, dramatic work that perfectly sets up the journey through the Wagner.

For over seven decades, musicians from all over the world have gathered each summer to play chamber music and to grow as musicians. What attracts these musicians, and brings them back, is the love of playing chamber music, the chance to learn from world-class performers and teachers, and the joy of seeing old friends and making new ones.
After more than sixty years at Bennington College in Vermont, the Chamber Music Conference celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2022 at its new home on the campus of Colgate University in Hamilton, New York. The Conference returns to Colgate in 2023.
