Auburn Symphony Orchestra: Magical Strings
$10-$18
Now in its third year, ASO is thrilled to announce the return of Sunsets at Mary Olson Farm, an outdoor summer chamber music series at the beautiful and historic Mary Olson Farm in Auburn – King County's best preserved subsistence farm.
Auburn Symphony string players will be performing with Phil and Pam Boulding, parents of ASO concertmaster Brittany Boulding and founders of Magical Strings, an Olalla-based ensemble playing dulcimers, harps, violins, and more. Magical Strings has toured throughout the United States, Canada, Ireland, and Japan, appeared on Garrison Keillor’s “A Prairie Home Companion” and recorded 20 albums on four labels. This musical night will be a Celtic treat.
Concerts begin at 7:00 p.m. White River Valley Historical Museum docents will give tours of the farm including the fully-restored house and barn beginning at 6:00 p.m. Wine will be available by donation and a shuttle transporting people to and from the parking lot will occur one-half hour before concert start time and one-half hour after the concerts end. Concerts at Mary Olson Farm are festival seating with limited wheelchair and walker access. Blankets, baskets of food, and low chairs are encouraged.
