Festival Story:

This project originated, in 1997, from the desire of a group of people in northern New Brunswick, to create a summer festival that would meet the region's undeniable need for culture. Its primary aim is to provide local music-lovers, summer residents and tourists with chamber music concerts of high artistic quality and, in so doing, to contribute to the development of culture and tourism in the region.
The Festival is an annual event with the following objectives: to fill a cultural need with productions of high artistic quality; to thereby promote the development of culture and tourism in the region; to promote the talent of recognized chamber musicians; to promote awareness of, and interest in the chamber music repertoire from classical to contemporary; to promote the creation and performance of works by Canadian composers.
