The Lily Rock Chamber Music Festival (LRCMF) is an annual concert series presented by the Manhattan Chamber Players (MCP) in Idyllwild, CA over Labor Day weekend.

MCP Artistic Director and Violist Luke Fleming and MCP Violinist Brendan Speltz serve as Co-Artistic Directors.

LRCMF’s Third Season will be held from August 30 – September 1, 2024!

Each of the three Free Public Concerts during LRCMF will feature the world-renowned Artists of the Manhattan Chamber Players along with numerous guest artists (including Idyllwild Arts Faculty member Kaila Potts-Smith). 

• Friday, August 30, 2024, 6 PM: William M. Lowman Concert Hall, Idyllwild Arts Academy

• Saturday, August 31, 2024, 6 PM: William M. Lowman Concert Hall, Idyllwild Arts Academy

• Sunday, September 1, 2024, 1 PM: St. Hugh’s Episcopal Church, Outdoor Amphitheater (weather permitting, otherwise in sanctuary)

Each recital during LRCMF is preceded by a free Pre-Concert Talk and Q&A 30 minutes prior to the concert time.  No pieces are repeated over the course of these three recitals, so each concert is unique and unmissable!

Admission is also FREE ($20 suggested donation).
