Salt Bay Chamberfest is a non-profit music festival in mid-coast Maine founded by cellist Wilhelmina Smith. The festival embraces the music of living composers and brings them together with their classic counterparts. The festival is a unique experience bringing world class musicians together performing in a barn in Damariscotta. The concerts are preceded by lectures that introduce and educate the audience about the music. The experience of attending these concerts is astoundingly powerful and intimate.
