The Green Mountain Mahler Festival holds reading sessions a few times per year. The goal of the readings is to provide an opportunity for musicians from across Vermont to gather for an evening to play an ambitious work for their own musical growth and enjoyment. Readings have attracted 100 or more local musicians, allowing the group to tackle complex works on a grand scale, by great Romantic composers including Gustav Mahler, Anton Bruckner, and Richard Strauss.

Readings are held at Elley-Long Music Center in Fort Ethan Allen, Colchester, Vermont. Music is available prior to the readings, so that participants may prepare by practicing their parts at home.

New members are always welcome. String players are especially needed, as well as singers (for works requiring a chorus). Please contact us if you would like to participate in future readings.
