Background on creating this program
"Ever wonder what musicians actually do when the concert hall lights go down for the season? Hint: We’re still practicing.
Getting back together after a summer apart is always a joy for us, but the music we practice “just for fun” over the break usually ends up in a dusty pile, heard by no one but our pets. But not this year!
Join Chamber Project St. Louis at the Schroeder Park Amphitheater to kick off Season 19! "What I Did This Summer" turns the classic back-to-school report up a notch. Our musicians are stepping out of the practice room and onto the stage to share the solo works, hidden gems, and passion projects they’ve been working on all off-season—the stuff you usually never get to hear.
Plus, we’ll be giving you a sneak peek into what’s to come for our 19th season! Pack a picnic, leash up the dog, and join us for this free, fun, outdoor concert in West County to find out what we’ve really been up to."
