Philip Hansen, master cellist from the Orquestra Filarmonica de Mina Gerais, Brazil, plans this annual event throughout the year contacting world class musicians and designing the programme for your enjoyment.

This year's line up brings you a series of classics from Tchaikovsky, Debussy, Rossini, Dorothy Chang and Konstantin Bozhinov. The Stone House offers a unique experience where the round stone building reflects music back to the audience, making you feel one with the musicians. Musicians come from all parts of the globe.
