Sustainable Sounds
Chamber Music Campania in collaboration with Porter Farms presents Sustainable Sounds: a concert of wind quintet music at an organic farm

August 17, 2014, 2:00 pm

We invite you to join us for a fun afternoon of chamber music and an inside look at sustainable farming at Porter Farms (5020 Edgerton Road, Elba, NY ).  

Sustainable Sounds promotes healthy communal relations among artists, audience members, and the suppliers, producers, and makers of food. This event re-imagines the concert hall as a place for the exchange of creative actions between musicians and farmers––the craftsmen and women of the musical and agricultural "arts." 

The Sustainable Sounds experience includes:
  • a concert of wind quintet music, carefully curated to complement the farm space
  • a hayride tour of Porter Farms 
  • samples of organically grown vegetables from the farm
  • an opportunity to interact with the owners of Porter Farms and other local food experts 
  • roundtrip transportation between downtown Rochester and Porter Farms (via charter bus)[1]
