2022 Festival Program Announcement

Written By Maitreyi Muralidharan

With tomorrow comes the opening day of our festival, and we’re getting ready to work with our residents to prepare a series of events that are going to be… magical. No, really. Magical. We don’t know your experiences with classical music, and we can say with certainty that ours haven’t always been positive. But we also know very deeply that it doesn’t have to be that way. It doesn’t have to be in concert halls, it doesn’t have to be with suits and ties and silence between movements. It can be with barbecued veggies, with storybooks and laughter. It can be with a beer, or two or three. Classical music is “come as you are” music, it’s “we’ve been there too” music, it’s just… music. And music is best shared with those we love. Come out and join us, as you are, and we promise, we’re going to have an incredible time together.

Maitreyi Muralidharan

Critically recognized as “an accomplished violin soloist,” (CVNC) Maitreyi Muralidharan is an east coast based musician and an avid orchestral and chamber performer. They hold a Bachelor's Degree from the Peabody Institute of Music under the tutelage of Herbert Greenberg, a Master’s Degree and Professional Arts Certificate from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts under the tutelage of Kevin Lawrence, and an Artist Diploma from McGill University under the tutelage of Violaine Melancon. Maitreyi was raised in North Carolina where they fostered a love for sharing music in group settings, whether in ensembles or as a teacher. They have also served as concertmaster of the Peabody Symphony Orchestra, Peabody Chamber Orchestra, UNCSA Symphony Orchestra, and was a member of the UNCSA Chrysalis Chamber Music Institute for two years. They have attended summer music festivals in Colorado, New York, Canada, North Carolina, Vermont, and Germany, and have performed as a chamber musician on international stages. As a musician who has dealt with severe injury, Maitreyi has had to find their own paths in the field of classical and contemporary music, and in that process, has grown a deep appreciation and love for connecting with the unconventional. They aim to share this idea of connection with all walks of life—the idea that being a musician is far more than what is understood or seen, and that one of the greatest joys is fostering a sense of community that can happen any time music is made. Outside of being an orchestral and chamber musician, Maitreyi enjoys working with and advising new music ensembles, assisting violinists with injuries to find creative and sustainable playing practices, and farming.
