Star Staff

   The Southampton Arts Festival will present its opening concert of two Bach concertos tomorrow on the terrace of the Parrish Art Museum. “Double Violin Concerto in D-minor” and “Concerto for Two Violins in D-minor” will be performed by Dmitri Berlinsky and Mikhail Bezverkhny. The concert will begin at 6 and will continue during the sunset.

   The festival, founded by Elena Baksht, a pianist, and Mr. Berlinsky, has both a performance and educational program. It offers a two-week young artist program, which includes chamber music concerts from a distinguished faculty and visiting artists; private and chamber music lessons for professional students, and master classes, which are open to the public.

   Tickets are free with museum admission of $10, and free for members, students, and children. Guests have been encouraged to take chairs or blankets for use on the terrace and the events lawn.

    The Parrish will also host the festival’s closing concert on Aug. 25, at 4 p.m. in the museum’s theater. Those tickets are $20, $10 for members, but free for students and children.
