The Sitka Summer Music Festival (abbreviated SSMF) is a month-long classical chamber music festival in the community of Sitka, Alaska. ==About== The festival takes place in early summer during the month of June with three groupings of musicians. Each group of musicians performs three concerts before a new group arrives to perform the next three concerts. Each season of the festival consists of around ten evening concerts, the centerpieces of the festival, as well as several free, informal "brown bag" concerts and multiple fundraising events and cruises. All of the evening concerts occur at the breathtaking venue of Harrigan Centennial Hall, in downtown Sitka. While it is not an auditorium (rather, the main hall of a convention/civic center), its glass-panel backdrop reveals a clear view of Crescent Harbor, Eastern Channel and its assortment of small, tree-covered islands dotting its water, snow-capped mountains, and an occasional bald eagle swooping down from the sky. The festival's sheet music library is housed in Stratton Library at the former Sheldon Jackson College in Sitka. The current Artistic Director is Paul Rosenthal. Zuill Bailey presently serves as Assistant Director and will assume the full directorship upon Rosenthal's retirement in 2012.〔(Zuill Bailey Named Next Artistic Director for Sitka )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sitka Summer Music Festival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
