DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Groupmuse\nMusicians: Christopher Schmitt and Henry F
 lory\n\nGroupmuse CEO\, founder\, and feller behind all of the innumerable
  lovingly written Nights Out and Massivemuse emails you so patiently eithe
 r ignore or read but don’t unsubscribe from\, Sam\, recently moved to **
 340 acres of glorious\, historic\, and protected land called Claymont Cour
 t in West Virginia’s Eastern Panhandle** with his partner Emily\, who is
  notably the originator of the Massivemuse. \n\nOne of the major intentio
 ns behind the move is to start **a Groupmuse Summer Festival** on these s
 plendid grounds. **The dream is to create an ecstatic and immersive multi-
 day experience around this music for our national community to share toget
 her\,** but it’ll be some time before this dream achieves full expressio
 n (so keep your eyes and emails opened...). That said\, this very summer w
 e’re taking our first small steps with a couple of Massivemuses\, the fi
 rst of which is on **[Saturday\, July 28th](https://www.groupmuse.com/even
 ts/6711-the-start-of-something-huge)** and the second of which is on **Sat
 urday\, August 4th.**\n\nClaymont is about **80 minutes from Washington DC
 ** and **45 minutes from Dulles Airport**\, which is obviously far too gre
 at of a schlep for just an evening concert\, so what we’ve decided to do
  is make a stack of tickets available for folks who want to come down and 
 camp on the enormous and pristine grounds for the night. The evening start
 s with a panel discussion on regenerative environmental stewardship\\*\, t
 hen we’ll have **a huge Massivemuse in the glorious Octagonal performanc
 e** space on the grounds\, and for those spending the night\, we’ll have
  campfire shenanigans and perhaps a midnight performance under the moonlig
 ht. The ecstasy will extend for as long as we stay awake!\n\n**[On July 28
 th\, we'll be sharing the moonlight with the beloved Warp Trio\, who have 
 Groupmuse'd coast to coast AND across the Atlantic.](https://www.groupmuse
 .com/events/6711-the-start-of-something-huge)**\n\n**On August 4th\, we'll
  be joined by the President's Own Marine Band Pianist Chris Schmitt and th
 e electrifying violinist Henry Flory.** \n\nBoth programs are TBD\, but th
 ey'll be sweet beyond reason\, rest assured. \n\n\nWe can’t wait to take
  this step with you!\n\n\\*Both of these Massivemuses are part of a larger
  Permaculture Festival\, which you can learn about **[here (July 27th to J
 uly 30th)](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/permaculture-renewal-retreat-livin

 st 3rd to August 6th)](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/permaculture-renewal-r

 r you’re staying for the night or just for the evening.
