The Town of Bethany Beach hosts the Seaside Concert Series - Cellofest on Thursday, July 24th from 7:30-9pm.

The town is thrilled to welcome The BrickHouse Duo, the dynamic husband-and-wife ensemble of violinist Dr. Peter Wilson and cellist Jennifer Kloetzel. Dr. Wilson, an acclaimed violinist and conductor, spent 30 years as a member of The President’s Own U.S. Marine Band, serving under five U.S. Presidents. As The Voice of Marine Barracks Washington, DC, he was a key musical figure at the White House and beyond. Jennifer Kloetzel, an internationally celebrated cellist praised for her “impressively passionate performances” (The Strad), brings her signature artistry to both solo and ensemble works. With over 36 recordings and a career spanning the world’s greatest concert halls, she continues to inspire audiences with her compelling interpretations and masterful technique.

Also joining them are Erica Lessie, a versatile Chicago-based cellist with an eclectic career in orchestral, pop, and experimental music, and Dr. Brenda Neece, cellist, historian, and founder of the Cello Museum, who brings together performance and expertise in the history of the instrument.

Whether you’re a longtime cello lover or simply looking for a one-of-a-kind musical experience at the beach, Cellofest 2025 at Bethany Beach promises an unforgettable evening of artistry, passion, and breathtaking music.
