    The Sembrich features museum exhibitions and an annual summer festival with an exciting mix of world-class musicians, noted musical scholars, a free film series, and the opportunity to enjoy it all on the beautiful shores of Lake George. Listed on the National Historic Register, The Sembrich was once the teaching studio of Polish soprano Marcella Sembrich, one of the most famous musicians at the turn of the 20th century.

    Visitors can discover her storied legacy, which includes over 400 performances at the Metropolitan Opera and faculty positions at both the Juilliard Graduate School and the Curtis Institute of Music. With a treasured museum, performance series, and over four wooded acres of nature paths to explore, The Sembrich is truly a unique cultural experience.

    The Marcella Sembrich Memorial Performance Prize awarded to Michael Butler exemplifies the artistic legacy of Polish soprano Marcella Sembrich. The prize guarantees the selected singer a solo performance at The Sembrich, the famed singer’s former lakeside teaching studio in Bolton Landing on Lake George, during an upcoming season. The auditions were held on the weekend of October 12-13 at the Kosciuszko Foundation’s house in NYC.

    Michael Butler hails from Washington, D.C. and is American lyric tenor. Of nearly 120 applicants, 34 singers were admitted to participate. Butler placed second in the overall competition and won the award for the best performance of a Polish work by a non-Polish entrant. The grand prize was awarded to Polish-American soprano Magdalena Kuźma, and third prize was awarded to Canadian contralto Rose Naggar-Tremblay.

    Along with awarding a prize, The Sembrich has also received an award of their own. The 2024 Award for Excellence was given by The Greater Hudson Heritage Network (GHHN) for The Sembrich’s recent efforts to preserve Marcella Sembrich’s “Queen of the Night” costume. The museum staff attended the annual GHHN conference on Tuesday, October 15 to accept the award and present at an awardee poster session. The conference “Embracing Innovation,” was held at Manhattanville College in Purchase New York and was attended by museum professionals from across New York State.

    GHHN is New York State’s ‘go-to’ service organization focusing on interpretation, collections care programming, and the conservation and preservation of objects in collecting institutions statewide. Its programming and professional development training programs, webinars, hands-on workshops, web-based resources, responsive technical assistance, and grant opportunities provide the tools so that historical societies, historic house museums, heritage centers, historic sites, archives, and libraries may better care for their own collections.

    Greater Hudson Heritage Network’s Awards for Excellence program seeks to recognize and commend exceptional efforts among GHHN members. Awards are made to projects that exemplify creativity and professional vision resulting in a contribution to the preservation and interpretation of the historic scene, material culture, and diversity of the region.

  • The Sembrich Announces Exciting Mid-August Events

    The Sembrich, Bolton Landing’s historical museum and music venue, announced their mid-August event schedule. Featuring violin guitar duo ArcoStrum, a James Joyce inspired opera, and an acclaimed Polish violinist, the Sembrich has an exciting month ahead.

    The Sembrich boasts a variety of musical events, a museum with a rich history, and indescribable natural beauty. Whether it’s a new museum exhibition or their annual music festival, The Sembrich always offers something to look forward to.

    On August 17, acclaimed Polish violinist Kinga Augustyn will perform at The Sembrich. Augustyn will perform a program of Polish masterworks, including Saint-Saëns’ “Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso,” Op. 28, Kreisler’s “Three Old Viennese Dances” and Polish masterworks by Henryk Wieniawski and Grażyna Bacewicz, accompanied by Alla Milchtein.

    Richard Wargo, The Sembrich’s artistic director, said, “Kinga was a part of our 2021 festival ‘Nature and Music,’ when she delighted listeners with nature-inspired violin melodies… This year’s performance promises an elegant evening with the celebrated musician and renderings of several rarely performed violin masterworks here in the Adirondacks.” Tickets are available at the following link.

    Award winning instrumental duo ArcoStrum will bring their exhilarating mix of music from around the world to The Sembrich on August 21. Guitarist TY Zhang and Violinist Strauss Shi met at Julliard, and discovered a personal and musical chemistry that would enhance their charismatic stage performances and immense technical proficiency. Committed to pushing boundaries, ArcoStrum creates a one of a kind performance by combining personal compositions with traditional Chinese instrumental music and 21st Century rock.

  • The Park Theater Foundation Announces Adirondack Americana Music Series

    The Hub, located in the hamlet of Brant Lake, is a bike shop, restaurant and small show venue. Sitting right next to the beautiful Brant Lake, The Hub is an idyllic place to stop before hopping in a kayak or starting one of the many nearby hikes.

    Expanding on their annual Summer Series Concerts in Glens Falls, The Park Theater Foundation is now bringing operations 30 minutes north to The Hub with an all-new three-weekend series of free-to-the-public shows. Already a frequent venue for live music, The Hub is one of the best venues in the region to host a local series. All shows will run on Saturdays, beginning at 4 p.m., and will feature a mix of local and nationally acclaimed artists.

    “We are thrilled to announce the expansion of our free music series by introducing Adirondack Americana. The success of our Summer Series Concerts at the Crandall Park Bandshell is beyond anything I could have imagined. Over the last four years, we have welcomed a wide variety of acts to our area and helped to create a family-friendly environment where folks from near and far can enjoy quality entertainment for free! I am looking forward to extending the spirit of our Summer Series Concerts to our neighbors in Brant Lake this fall, and work alongside our friend and supporter, Drew Cappabianca. The expansion of the series allows us to take our programming to the northern parts of Warren County and provide an additional outlet for the performing arts in our region. Make your plans for Adirondack Americana – we can’t wait to see you in the fall!”

    Not much is better than a day in nature followed by some good eats and live music, so take some time to plan a day in Brant Lake and cap it off with dinner and a show at The Hub.

    2024 Adirondack Americana Lineup

    Saturday – 09/14 – Reese Fulmer & The Carriage House Band

    Reese Fulmer & The Carriage House Band challenge the traditional relationship between a songwriter and his band, with a fluidly rotating cast of top-notch players and a flair for experimentation that combine for a unique and mesmerizing live performance. They also won the Thomas Edison Capital Region Music Awards “Americana Artist of the Year” in 2023 and 2024.

    Saturday – 09/28 – Joseph Terrell & Blue Cactus

    Most widely known by music fans as a member of the indie-Americana band Mipso, Terrell is well-accustomed to pushing the boundaries of traditional genres into new musical territory. Blue Cactus makes “Dream Country”: a blend of grit, glitz, groove, and twang that evokes a celestial soundscape of mid-century heartbreak and harkens comparisons as eclectic and iconic as Bobbie Gentry, Fleetwood Mac, and David Bowie.

    “A subtle but beautiful elegance… If you’ve ever wondered where country and Americana music is going, look no further. Blue Cactus is painting pictures of limitless possibility.”

    No Depression Journal

    Saturday – 10/12 – Little Saints

    Based in Saratoga Springs, NY, Little Saints have crafted a style they call their own somewhere between Americana, indie-folk, and modern soul.

    “Spearheaded by songwriter Natalie Santini – her powerfully sultry voice alone would make anything sound soulful – [Little Saints has established themselves as] a force to be reckoned with.”

    Lucas Garrett, Nippertown

  • Hearing Aide: Lotus “How to Dream in Color,” Announces New York Show and Full Tour

    On July 15, Lotus released their newest studio album, How to Dream in Color, embarking on a nationwide tour starting this past week, ending on New Year’s Eve in Philadelphia. This energetic, unique, and funky album is another hit for their discography, combining easy-listening funk with hip-hop and pop that gives it a perfect retro feel.

    With a musical style as unique as Lotus, it can be hard to grab the attention of listeners and keep them interested. The opening track, “How Do I Come Down,” immediately captures the listener with a hypnotic drum beat and steady guitar riffs but quickly differentiates itself with funky, distorted vocals scattered throughout. It truly sets the tone for the rest of the album and may not be something that you’re used to, but it’s just as groovy nonetheless.

    Throughout the album, Lotus manages to keep the listener on their toes. The album acts as a tribute to longtime percussionist Chuck Morris, following his and his son’s passing in 2023. During this transitional period, Lotus embraced a new approach to recording, including the use of layered drum sounds and a collage-based style that shows how far they’ve come their first few albums like Nomad (2005) or even their 2011 self-titled album.

    With each track’s style, there is still a signature electronic spin one would expect from Lotus. How to Dream in Color puts the spotlight on the instrumentalists and gives them a chance to truly shine and show off their talents and experimentation through multiple genres. Most of the album is dedicated to the music itself, giving their musicianship a chance to shine. Songs with vocals like “Can You Hear the Sound” and the opening track “How Do I Come Down” are great introductions to the album, and elegantly juxtaposed against the full-instrumental tracks that surround it.

Saturday will bring in more nationally touring acts like TRIXTER, Anthony Corder, the voice of TORA TORA, and Ted Poley, the lead singer of DANGER DANGER. Sunday’s lineup will return to more local artists, like Harmony Rocks, South Bound Renegade, and Across the Pond.

    A tent will be onsite with tables and chairs for everyone’s use, which might come in handy in the case of rain. The event is rain or shine.

    A large VIP tent will also be available for VIP ticket holders only, with tables and chairs, access to a private bar for quick drinks, and front-of-stage access, along with a meet and greet with the bands. Saturday’s VIP tent will host Anthony Corder, the voice of Tora Tora, and acoustic solo performances between sets.
