Summer of Paris Chamber Music Festival

The Summer of Paris is a four-concert chamber music festival featuring 16 chamber music works of Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Both of these French composers were at the forefront of impressionist music. Their stunning legacy transformed musical expression at the early part of the 20th century and continues to shape our musical landscape to this very day. These four concerts will take place July 6-9, 2023, at the stunning Pompeian Room of the Doheny Mansion. The New Hollywood String Quartet – violinists Tereza Stanislav and Rafael Rishik, violist Robert Brophy, and cellist Andrew Shulman – will be joined by some of the most celebrated musicians from around the world.
