Midsummer’s Music Presents German Romantic Masters

During the Romantic period, approximately 1800-1850, music and poetry went hand in hand – a symbiotic relationship that Midsummer’s Music will explore during its Lush and Thrilling Romantic Poetry program.

The featured musicians – flutist Heather Yarmel, clarinetist JJ Koh, violinists David Perry and Ann Palen, violist Allyson Fleck, cellist James Waldo and bassist David Scholl – will play works by Carl Maria von Weber, Franz Schubert and Friedrich Gernsheim.

Concerts are set for July 29, 7 pm, at the Kress Pavilion in Egg Harbor; July 30, 7 pm, at Hope United Church of Christ in Sturgeon Bay; and July 31, 3 pm, at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Sister Bay.
