Music in the Garden at Hollister House Garden

The Hollister House located in the bucolic village of Washington is hosting its annual event, Music in the Garden, on June 10 at 5 p.m. that is perfect for garden and music lovers.  Beautifully situated on a sloping terraced site, this house garden is an American interpretation of a classic English Garden.



Unwind on the main lawn amid the loosely formal structure of this garden and enjoy a magical concert by the Deming String Quartet.  The concert of baroque music will include  Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G Major by Johann Sebastian Bach, L’estro Armonico, Opus 3, No.11 in D Minor by Antonio Vivaldi, Selections from Water Music and Music for the Royal Fireworks by George Frideric Handel and more.

Bring a blanket or a camp chair, even a picnic if you wish – we’ll provide the rosé! Greet summer with a backdrop of a beautiful garden while enjoying an outstanding concert of baroque music.

For tickets, HHG Members $25 |Non-Members $35 https://hollisterhousegarden.org/events/music-in-the-garden.
