Sculpted into the mountainside above the Mohawk Valley with its breathtaking views, the Rostropovich Amphitheatre provides the ultimate natural environment to enjoy good musical vibrations, great food and earth-loving company.
The amphitheatre is located on a sprawling 330-acre estate that is a magical combination of history, serenity and art. On this breathtaking property dating back to the 1700s you will encounter the crown jewel of Herkimer County, Gelston Castle, along with other historical sites including the 1787 Historic Farmhouse and the Cemetery which is the final resting place of family members related to 3 U.S. Presidents. Also on the property is the Mansion which was the former home of Russian Cellist/Conductor Mstislav Rostropovich.
