Gorgeous venue to see a concert when the weather is nice. Â Bring a picnic and enjoy the grounds and then sit under the tent and enjoy. Â
I brought my kids and learned that we would have been better off not getting seats. Â They loved walking the gardens and playing outside and we could stand for a few minutes up close to see the orchestra that was all they needed.
Caramoor is a gem outisde the city that attracts some of the best musicians from around the world. Â It's a luxurious estate in a Mediterranean style, in beautiful Katonah. Â If you're in the area, it would be a nice treat to visit just to walk around the grounds (pretty both when the flowers are blooming and also when the leaves are falling, I think), but why not go on a concert day and see the house/museum and grounds before the concert? Â There are classical concerts, but also jazz and cabaret, morning concerts, indoor concerts in the beautiful music room, and summer concerts in the Spanish Courtyard.
And as a little treat for Metro North-taking classical music lovers, you'll pass through the station "Valhalla" on the way to Katonah!
