Where in Chicago is Augustin Hadelich?

Catch this internationally celebrated violinist with the Grant Park Orchestra on Friday June 21 and Saturday night June 22; leading a master class with our Project Inclusion Fellows on Saturday June 22 at 11 AM at the Chicago Cultural Center; and with pianist Orion Weiss in an intimate, free recital on the Pritzker Stage as part of our CenterStage series on Sunday June 23 at 2 PM.

The Festival is thrilled to present the Grammy Award-winning violinist Augustin Hadelich in his Festival debut, with three captivating experiences and a different point of view each time.
