Eastern Music Festival: June 25-July 30, 2011
North Carolina's Musical Treasure

Join us in the beautiful central Piedmont region in North Carolina this summer for one of this country’s top summer music festivals – the Eastern Music Festival!

The internationally recognized Eastern Music Festival will produce over 100 events – everything from Grammy-winning classical soloists with symphony orchestra (three resident orchestras to choose from) – to two chamber series, and one of America’s most innovative and eclectic schedules of alternative programming, as part of EMFfringe. Music Director Gerard Schwarz heads a distinguished list of participating artists.

As more and more of the world's top performers come here to work, teach and perform, gifted music students in record numbers from across the U.S. and abroad are vying for a place among the few who will be accepted to study and spend five weeks at Eastern Music Festival. And growing audiences from across the region are loving the great music. Join Eastern Music Festival as they celebrate 50 years of education, music and life!

So why is Greensboro's Eastern Music Festival fast becoming one of the hottest places to be in this country for young musicians and professional performers?

You can see why on their faces. Everyone is smiling. The world's greatest artists -- from classical soloists like Gil Shahamto crossover fiddler Mark O’Connor to trumpeter Doc Severinsen and bands like New Riders of the Purple Sage -- are coming to EMF to work and refresh themselves. There is a vibrant energy at all performances -- many sell out so you’ll want to plan ahead -- and it is intoxicating. And America is listening - performances recorded at EMF are featured regularly on National Public Radio's popular Performance Today program, broadcast on 264 stations nationwide.

The O.Henry Hotel is delighted to be a major sponsor this year. Visit us for a remarkable summer and discover music in a whole new way at EMF.
