Celebrating the North Fork

Long Island Concert Orchestra In Collaboration with Rites of Spring Music Festival

Rites of Spring Music Festival celebrates its tenth anniversary and pays homage to the North Fork by showcasing its artistic expressions and working practices in its many extraordinary venues such as The Suffolk.

Given North Fork’s rich maritime and agricultural traditions with its multiple cultures and practices, the Rites of Spring Music Festival is proud to highlight this distinctive terroir through the music and rhythms of this unique community.

We are very proud of partnering with The Suffolk in presenting the Long Island Concert Orchestra, a dynamic and powerful orchestra of talented musicians presenting a program of music by Mozart, Shor, Taralli and Copland. Music that aims to celebrate the winemaking and agricultural traditions of the North Fork accompanied by a wine tasting during the evening.

Rites of Spring has quickly become the premier classical and contemporary music festival on the North Fork and East End of Long Island. In this tenth edition the festival is devoted to contemporary sounds in a setting that engages the community and invites the listener to participate on many levels. We believe great music works best in a unique environment.
