WEEKEND: Chamber Music Fest continues at Port Townsend’s Fort Worden

Today and tonight signify Friday, June 19.

PORT TOWNSEND — Public events continue this weekend in Centrum’s Port Townsend Chamber Music Festival at Fort Worden State Park.

The weeklong set of workshops and performances is led by artistic director Lucinda Carver and the Enso String Quartet from Yale, which specializes in giving master classes.

Continuing through Sunday, music lovers will have a chance to hear players from Juilliard, Tufts University and other schools across the nation.

These festival participants include the Azalea Quartet from Indiana University in Bloomington, Juilliard’s Quartet Elektra and classical pianists Pauline Yang from Tufts and Alin Melik-Adamyan from Los Angeles.

“It’s akin to a mini-Aspen Music Festival experience,” said Gregg Miller, Centrum program manager.

“It will be a thrill to see and hear the performances take shape, providing local audiences a glimpse into the creative process of music-making.”

Here’s the remaining schedule of activities open to the public at the Wheeler Theater at Fort Worden, 200 Battery Way.

■ Today, June 19, 7:30 p.m.: String quartet showcase recital; $10.

■ Saturday, June 20, 7:30 p.m.: Piano quintet showcase recital; $10.

■ Sunday, June 21, 2 p.m.: Enso Quartet faculty concert; tickets $32 and $37, depending on seat location.

Seating at master classes is first-come, first-served, while tickets for recitals and the faculty concert are on sale at 800-746-1982 and www.centrum.org.
