Amazingly, the 2024 NDSU Chamber Music Festival will mark the 10th season that we have gathered to enjoy performances of great chamber music together! Alongside concerts of great instrumental chamber music in Beckwith Recital Hall on Monday, August 26 and Wednesday, August 28, the 2024 NDSU Chamber Music Festival will feature a two special performances of Igor Stravinsky's iconic masterpiece "The Rake's Progress" in the Challey Atrium on Tuesday, August 27 and Thursday, August 29. The production, directed by Fargo-Moorhead Community Theatre Executive Director Judy Lewis, will feature costumes by Rooth Varland and world-class guest principal singers including NDSU alumni Clara Osowski and Tessa Hartl. In continuing the side-by-side educational model of the Festival, the chorus will feature NDSU student performers led from within by NDSU vocal faculty Kelly Burns and Karisa Templeton, and in the same way the chamber ensemble will include NDSU student performers alongside NDSU faculty, other beloved musicians from the Fargo-Moorhead area, and guest artists including violinist Grace Park as well as members of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
