Lunch and a classical music mini concert combine for a gorgeous afternoon at the historic Inn of Cape May. These intimate performances feature members of the Bay Atlantic Symphony.

Jun 04 Thursday
The Bay Atlantic Symphony performs Arthur Foote’s Serenade, Op. 25, Bach’s Violin Concerto in A minor with violinist Ruotao Mao, and Isaac Albeniz’s España. The center of Bach’s violin concerto is a breathtakingly lyrical middle movement with a sweeping melody of spiritual dimensions, shared between the soloist and orchestra. It is bookended by jaunty movements, the last being a gigue (jig). American composer Arthur Foote’s Serenade sings to us with bucolic grace and rhapsody. Albéniz’s España takes us on a sensual tour of picturesque regions throughout Spain.

Outstanding jazz musicians from near and far come for this once-a-year tradition that reignites joyful memories of a beloved and respected musician and friend, George Mesterhazy. Whether he knew you or just met you, George drew you in with his magnetism and talent. A renowned and distinguished jazz pianist, his generosity as a musician is legendary. He began his association with the festival in 2007 with an annual jazz concert devoted to music of the Great American Songbook, and since his passing in 2012, the festival continues his legacy. This year’s theme reflects the many ways music can transport us to so many beautiful places, both real and imaginary
