SUMMARY:Monterey Symphony Announces 2026-2027 Season at Sunset Center
DESCRIPTION:Monterey Symphony Announces 2026-2027 Season at Sunset Center \nand Love Letter to New York at the Forest Theater\nPerformances at Sunset Center\, Carmel\, San Carlos and 9th Ave. \nCarmel/Monterey CA – Monterey Symphony announces its 81st season with two Love Letter to New York performances at the Forest Theater and six concert sets at the Sunset Center. \n“We are bringing world-class\, dynamic soloists to the Symphony\, and this season’s line up is absolutely stellar. Making their Monterey Symphony debuts\, Jonathan Biss is one of America’s greatest living pianists\, and Alexi Kenney is a young superstar of the violin. Ran Dank and Soeyon Kate Lee—husband and wife\, and both outstanding piano soloists in their own right—return to the Monterey Symphony as a powerful piano duo with Dvorak’s tuneful Slavonic Dances and the world premiere for two pianos and orchestra by Chinese-American composer Chen Yi\,” says Music Director Jayce Ogren. \n“In May\, our collaboration with the San Francisco based chorus VOLTI continues with Verdi’s dramatic Te Deum and Mahler’s epic Symphony No. 2\, Resurrection\, the first ever Monterey Symphony performances of this beloved\, overwhelming work\,” says Ogren. \n“In addition to iconic favorites like Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5\, Copland’s Appalachian Spring\, Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4\, and in March we’ll present something very special. Brahms wrote just four symphonies\, considered by many to be the greatest works in the orchestral repertoire. In one weekend\, the Monterey Symphony will play them all. It’s a beautiful opportunity to hear these sublime works in close proximity to one another\, and I very much hope you’ll join us\,” says Ogren. \n2026-2027 Season Tickets: SUBSCRIPTIONS on sale starting MAY 1\, 2026. SINGLE TICKETS on sale JULY 31\, 2025. For questions\, call the Symphony ticket office at (831) 646-8511\, Mon-Fri\, 10 AM – 4 PM. Tickets: $50-$90\, $12 for students\, teachers\, and military.

SUMMARY:Summerfest 26 - A Cellist's Calling
DESCRIPTION:Bathed in the afternoon glow of light-filled arched windows and stained glass\, two giants of the cello world\, Tanya Tomkins and Felix Fan\, tell their tale of destiny and perform the music they came to champion. Their inspiration comes from past and future\, and the venue shares a similar arc. What started as a 19th century chapel transformed through the fierce fortitude of its namesake to a 20th and 21st century library\, research center and archive. The historic Doud House next door hosts our wine reception with the musicians in its charming backyard garden patio.

SUMMARY:Summerfest 26 - Kismet
DESCRIPTION:Is it a hypothetical force? A matter of fate? An awareness of an approaching end that sparks the finest work of an artist’s life? Join violinist Tien-Hsin Cindy Wu and the musicians of Summerfest at Asilomar’s Seascape room to find out. Seascape’s stone columns\, floor-to-ceiling windows\, and breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean provide the ideal backdrop for a musical exploration of Kismet by the sea. The afternoon’s program is highlighted by Schubert’s monumental String Quintet (in C)\, one of his last compositions\, as temperamental and ethereal as the sea itself. Greet the performers at a post-concert reception with wine.

SUMMARY:Summerfest 26 - Echoing Prayer
DESCRIPTION:From field to distillery\, barrel to bottle\, the vintner’s art is one of alchemy\, toil\, skill and luck with prayers to mother nature sprinkled in along the way. Prayer itself is like a distillation of our best intentions sent to a higher power to be sanctified with the hope of manifesting greatness. Surrounded by the heady fragrance and rustic charm of Corral Wine’s Barrel Room\, a Summerfest favorite\, clarinet and strings evoke the theme of echoing prayers. The music will carry you from ancient words murmured in quiet comfort to formal declarations spoken in community. Special wine tasting following the concert (sold separately).
