MIDSUMMER’S MUSIC HIGHLIGHTS CYCLICAL PIECES, WORK BY COMPOSER-IN-RESIDENCE

The Griffon String Quartet will headline the third program of Midsummer’s Music’s 2022 summer season with four dynamic concerts that include Griffon members’ personal favorites: cyclical pieces by Felix Mendelssohn and Dmitri Shostakovich. In a cyclic musical form, thematic material occurs as a unifying device in more than one movement or section. 

This program will be performed June 24, 7 pm, at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Sister Bay; June 25, 7 pm, at Hope United Church of Christ in Sturgeon Bay; June 26, 3 pm, at the Sister Bay Moravian Church; and June 30, 7 pm, at the Kress Pavilion in Egg Harbor.

The season’s fourth program will feature work by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Trio, a piece by composer-in-residence Will Healy. Concerts will be performed July 1, 7 pm, at Björklunden in Baileys Harbor; July 2, 7 pm, at the Kress Pavilion in Egg Harbor; July 3, 3 pm, at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Sister Bay; and July 5, 7 pm, at Hope United Church of Christ in Sturgeon Bay.
