Lovely place to experience world class music. The musicians of the quartet are not only lovely people but incredible musicians. It is worth the trip to a beautiful country town.

The Garth Newel Music Center is a unique destination for chamber music lovers nestled in the beautiful Allegheny Mountain foothills. Its bucolic 114-acre campus is located in Hot Springs, Virginia, just three miles down the road from the famous Omni Homestead resort. As a non-profit organization established 50 years ago, the Center welcomes guests year-round. A resident professional strings-and-piano quartet performs over 50 concerts each year in Herter Hall, a converted riding arena. After each concert, guests sit down with the musicians to enjoy a multi-course gourmet dinner prepared by the resident chef. Overnight accommodations are available at Garth Newel’s historic Manor House or at the many nearby inns and B&Bs. My husband and I discovered this hidden gem in 2015 and have returned every year since. Translated from Welsh, “Garth Newel” means “new home.” Experience the joy of a concert and dinner in this exquisite setting, and you will find (as we have) that Garth Newel is your new musical home.

What a jewel in our midst!! Chamber music in a beautiful setting, along with a delicious meal following. An incredibly talented piano quintet with a standing ovation performance. The musical selections were filled with emotional reactions that were moving in their effect and thoroughly enjoyable. Your seat awaits.

I don't know what magic they soaked into these walls, but there is something special about this place. Maybe it's just the remoteness and beauty of the location. Or maybe it's that they treat the artists really well and so get better performances from them. Or maybe it's just that I really like Chef Josh's cooking. Whatever the reason, this place is not to be missed.
