Maine’s first “all carbon fiber concert” and it was the culmination of The Maine Festival of American Music: Its Roots and Traditions – held at the historic 1794 Shaker Meeting House, Sabbathday Lake, New Gloucester, Maine. The photo was taken during the dress rehearsal for that concert and it shows the beautiful simplicity of the inside of the Meeting House, with The Portland String Quartet and cellist Luis Leguia rehearsing the Schubert Cello Quintet in C Major, Op.163, with all playing the Luis & Clark instruments.
