The inaugural Chamber Music Festival of the Bluegrass at Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill was nothing less than a triumph as sold-out audiences at both concerts enjoyed impeccable performances in a setting of rare beauty. For the 2008 Festival, members of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, including pianist Wu Han and cellist David Finckel, return along with their special guests the Orion String Quartet, one of American's most sought after chamber ensembles. The expanded concert offerings will include works by Beethoven, Schubert, and Shostakovich.
