These are wonderful concerts in a beautiful setting. Unfortunately, people come to socialize, and talk and shout at one another while the musicians are playing. It is disrespectful to both the musicians and those who actually come to hear the music. I now go elsewhere to hear free concerts.
The concerts begin at 7 p.m.
