Loon Lake Live believes in building community through shared experiences. Programs have been free of charge with suggested “free will offering” levels, and open to all ages since our inception 28 years ago.
Our professional musicians are associated with orchestras, universities, and fine arts institutions throughout Europe and the Americas.
Loon Lake Live has become an enduring series that has performed well over 200 concerts and educational programs throughout the Northern Adirondack area, featuring compositions ranging from hundreds of years old to world premiere commissions for small ensemble, all performed in intimate spaces.

STEWARDSHIP
In addition to performing established chamber music repertoire from as far back as the Renaissance era, Loon Lake Live leads by featuring living and lesser known composers. We are especially proud to have commissioned and/or premiered new works by American composers John Winn, Benjamin Tomkins, Jessica Mays, Zae Munn, and Elizabeth Brown.
This summer we will be making the world premiere of a new string trio by John Winn, the premiere of a new arrangement of original work by Adam Larrabee, and will be featuring works by “new to Loon Lake Live” composers Missy Mazzoli, Errollyn Wallen, Carlos Simon, Gabriela Ortiz, and Karim Al-Zand.

EDUCATION
We work to nurture the next generation and present a specially designed series focused on sharing classical music in a stimulating environment with North Country youth and their care givers. We also mentor and feature developing younger musicians, and have built an online Play-Along series for developing musicians of every age. Check it out here [Scroll down to “Sweets”]
COMMUNITY
Having long lasting community connections is vital to us; we have donated and partnered with local organizations in creating free concerts to help the arts thrive. Recently we created an educational concert video to support Historic Saranac Lake’s undaunted and extraordinary efforts to preserve the history of Hungarian composer Béla Bartók’s connection to Saranac Lake.
