Bridgehampton Chamber Music Festival Marks its 40th Summer Season!

Bridgehampton Chamber Music Festival Marks its 40th Summer Season!

Bridgehampton Chamber Music Festival marks its 40th summer season in 2023. Long Island’s longest-running classical music festival celebrates this milestone with 11 concerts, July 16 – August 13, that showcase a theme of “Beethoven as Innovator” alongside six of the festival’s favorite works from four decades of commissioning new music: pieces by Elizabeth Brown, Kenji Bunch, Eric Ewazen, Bruce MacCombie, Kevin Puts, and Ned Rorem.

 

“Who would have thought that from a pair of concerts over a single weekend – where I was selling tickets off my front porch – that 40 years later we would not only still be putting on concerts, but would have expanded to a month-long summer festival, a fall series, and a spring series,” said festival Founder and Artistic Director Marya Martin. “As we celebrate this landmark year, I also salute my husband, Ken Davidson, who has been my partner on this sometimes wild ride, always sure and steady as the rising sun.”

 

The returning BCM commissions being performed this summer are Ned Rorem’s The Unquestioned Answer, Kenji Bunch’s Summer Hours, Elizabeth Brown’s Island Nocturnes, Eric Ewazen’s Bridgehampton Suite, Kevin Puts’s Seven Seascapes, and Bruce MacCombie’s Light Upon the Turning Leaf. The Beethoven focus includes a chamber music arrangement of the Symphony No. 6 for flute, violin, cello, and piano by Beethoven’s contemporary Johann Nepomak Hummel, and other programs feature such works as Elgar’s Piano Quintet, Debussy’s Piano Trio, Thomas Adès’s “O’Albion” from Arcadiana for String Quartet, and a chamber arrangement of Haydn’s Symphony No. 94 by Haydn’s publisher, Johann Peter Salomon.

 

The festival’s annual concert at the Parrish Art Museum explores nature and landscapes through music with a program including Sofia Gubaidulina’s Sounds of the Forest and Beethoven’s Horn Sonata. The Wm. Brian Little Concert, an event with wine and hors d’oeuvres in the Channing Sculpture Garden, is an “American Adventure” featuring selections by Dvořák, Harry Burleigh, Leonard Cohen, Mark O’Connor, and Aaron Copland, with guest artist the young singer and pianist Joseph Parrish, a recent winner of the Young Concert Artists auditions. And the festival’s annual benefit, a concert with cocktails and dinner, takes place at the Atlantic Golf Club.

 

As always, the festival’s roster of artists comprises one of the best multi-generational groups of chamber musicians to be found anywhere. Led by flutist and festival founder Marya Martin, this summer’s BCM musicians are James Austin Smith, oboe; Bixby Kennedy and Graeme Steele Johnson*, clarinet; Peter Kolkay, bassoon; Stewart Rose, horn; William Hagen*, Chad Hoopes, Bella Hristova, Sirena Huang, Ani Kavafian, Erin Keefe, Alexi Kenney, Anthony Marwood, Amy Schwartz Moretti, Tien-Hsin Cindy Wu, violin; Ettore Causa, Matthew Lipman, Cynthia Phelps, Masumi Per Rostad, and Cong Wu, viola; Carter Brey, Nicholas Canellakis, Brannon Cho*, Mihai Marica, and Peter Stumpf, cello; Donald Palma, bass; Michael Stephen Brown, Juho Pohjonen, Gilles Vonsattel, Orion Weiss, and Shai Wosner, piano; and Joseph Parrish*, voice and piano. (Those marked with an asterisk are making their BCM debuts.)

  • Hilary Matt Interiors is a residential design firm started and located in New York City with projects spanning across the country, including in the Hamptons and East End.⁠
⁠
Hilary, principal and founder, is known for a bold aesthetic that is comfortable and livable. She always keeps her clients at the forefront so they can express themselves as individuals through their spaces. After starting out in the fashion industry, Hilary felt a call to interior design where she has been bringing her unique approach and style to every space as the brand continues to grow.⁠
⁠
Hilary spoke more about her background, how each HMI project differs from one another, and why the Hamptons is such a special place to her. She also shared her top 5 interior design tips as inspiration.⁠
⁠
Can you discuss your background and how you got started with interior design?⁠
⁠
HM: I studied business and apparel merchandising. After graduating, my first job was at a women’s contemporary showroom in NYC. I had always loved fashion and wanted to be in the industry. After a year, I realized it wasn’t quite what I expected. I had always been interested in interior design, so I took a leap of faith and accepted a job as an assistant to an interior designer. I was initially nervous to leave fashion, but I figured I could always return. I ended up loving it and worked with her for eight years, learning the ins and outs of the business. I also took classes on weekends and evenings to learn computer programs, scaling, and other essential skills. After leaving that position and having my first son, I started my own company, which has snowballed into what we are today.⁠

  • Comedian Des Bishop took the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center this week and delivered laugh after laugh. A native New Yorker, Des moved to Ireland in his teenage years, which ultimately inspired his start in comedy and a successful career that has spanned three decades.⁠
⁠
His comedy is full of observational humor and nostalgia, whether it be about his many cross-cultural experiences, an ever-changing societal landscape, and his own personal stories growing up. Des brings energy and a unique perspective to every show, evident at his Westhampton show, the place he has spent all his summers since the 90s.⁠
⁠
Des spoke more about his background, how his experiences have shaped his approach to comedy, his connection with the East End, and his WHBPAC show.⁠
⁠
Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you first got into comedy?⁠
⁠
DB: Well, my background is a little complicated, but the quick version is I grew up in Queens, flunked out of St. Francis Prep at 14, and ended up going to Ireland to boarding school in 1990. It was a crazy, life-changing experience, but it definitely saved my education and ultimately inspired a comedy career that in the early days focused a lot on being an outsider looking in. It’s hard to know if I ever would have tried stand-up if I hadn’t been in Ireland. I got sober at 19 and it was a comedian I knew from that world that pushed me to try stand up. Once I got on stage that was all she wrote. I was addicted.⁠
