Music was a lifelong passion of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, who played the flute and often hosted Sunday concerts for friends and family at his New York City studio. When he and his family moved to Cornish full-time in 1900, these musical gatherings continued at Aspet, his beloved home and studio. Since 1952, the Saint-Gaudens Memorial has proudly carried on this tradition by sponsoring a summer concert series at the park.
Today, that legacy lives on through our free summer concert series, a celebration of music in one of New England’s most scenic settings. Held every Sunday afternoon in July and August at 2:00 PM, the series features eight weekly performances showcasing a wide range of musical genres—including classical, jazz, folk, funk, bluegrass, Broadway, Indigenous, and global traditions, as well as family-friendly selections.
Concerts are included with regular park admission, and all are welcome to enjoy the performances from the lawn. Bring your own blanket or chairs, pack a picnic, and relax with music in the same inspiring landscape that once moved a master sculptor.
These concerts are made possible thanks to generous donations from visitors like you. Your contribution helps us continue offering this cherished cultural tradition to the community each season.
We invite you to be a part of the legacy. Come for the art, stay for the music—and help keep the tradition alive.
There are currently no upcoming concerts.
