Since its opening in 1930, Music Mountain has been home to riveting chamber music performances all summer long. The New Yorker described Music Mountain as “the summer shrine of the string quartet” and its more recent inclusion of jazz concerts is attracting, this season, such greats as performers Paul Winter and the Bill Charlap Trio.

The exceptional acoustics of air-conditioned Gordon Hall nestled in the wooded mountain top of Falls Village creates a luxuriously rustic experience combining nature and culture. It is the place to listen to world-class performers that come up after playing at Lincoln Center and to up-and-coming talent that delight in their exuberance. Chamber concerts are every Sunday at 3 pm from June 4 through September 17. Jazz concerts begin June 24. 

The 94th Season Opening Benefit Concert & Reception is on June 4, 2023, featuring Mozart & Bach Concerti with pianist Benjamin Hochman and Friends. Tickets begin at $15 and children under 18 are free. Concert program and more information can be found at musicmountain.org.
