My Favorite Memory of Strings is Ken Greene

Ken Greene

“Ken Greene - Always lucid information about music and composers, clearly spoken and concise.”

“Ken Greene’s commentary, which always added an extra dimension.”

“The knowledge and presentations by Ken Greene…always inspiring!”

“Ken Greene makes every piece so much more meaningful with his commentary. I love his sense of humor and funny anecdotes about composers. It cracks me up to think of Mozart throwing pages of manuscripts out the window before the ink was even dry. I think what Mozart could have done with a computer. Thanks Ken for making the composers into real people.”


Ken Greene has been the Strings Music Festival commentator since 1988. His witty notes and historical facts presented before classical pieces let the audience’s imagination roam while listening to the music. Thank you, Ken for your many years at Strings.
