Music of the North: Festival Opening Concert!

  • Anchorage Museum 625 C St Anchorage, AK 99501 (map)

Wednesday, July 5, 2023 at 7:30 PM

Join us for the first concert of this summer’s Festival! ACMF’s distinguished guest artists come together in a celebration of music by composers from the northern climates. Bask in the resonance of Pärt’s meditative Fratres, and admire the majesty of Grieg’s string quartet. Along the way, discover Sibelius’ lesser-known Malinconia, a deeply emotional work for cello and piano.
