INSTRUMENTAL > 2008 COST ESTIMATES
June 21 - August 12, 2008

Chautauqua is the only music festival that could combine the intensity of a selective and demanding arts retreat with the hospitality and serenity of a summer at Grandma's.  Nested within an intellectual, international community, there's no place like it.
