Strings on the Bay, the summer chamber music series presented by Bay de Noc Community College returns this summer with a slate of fantastic concerts. The concerts are all in the Besse Center on the Escanaba campus, starting at 7pm EST, on select Tuesdays each month.

The summer series concludes with the True North Quartet, Tuesday August 8 at 7PM. This group, founded by Lundin, has been bringing their unique programs to Strings on the Bay since 2010 and is an audience favorite. This year the program is titled “Czech it Out.” The biographical quartet “From My Life” by Bedrich Smetana is paired with “The Cypresses Quartet,” a set of love songs by Antonin Dvorak transcribed by the composer. Hold hands with someone next to you and be swept away by these rarely heard compositions.

Tickets are available through the Bay college website: www.baycollege.tix.com, in-person at the Besse Center box office, or at the door prior to each concert. Admission is $15, K-Bay $7, or all three concerts for $35 (a savings of $10). Visit www.baycollege.tix.com, add each concert to the cart, and enter the discount code ‘3for30’ at checkout.
