Cox Hall, One Conservatory Drive

In 2021, a new South Shore Conservatory tradition debuted, igniting an annual collaboration between artists from Summer Music Festival and Duxbury Music Festival. This summer they come together for a concert of French and French-inspired works, including Debussy’s sublime String Quartet, and Martinů’s La revue de Cuisine, written at the height of the Jazz Age.
