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:CHARLIE TORCH WITH OTTER OPRY
DESCRIPTION:You honestly will not believe this lineup: Charlie Torch brings together siblings Jasper Manning on mandolin and Jayna Manning on guitar\, with their father\, Chad Manning (an alum of Laurie Lewis and the Right Hands\, the David Grisman Sextet\, and the David Grisman Bluegrass Experience) on fiddle\, Tyler Stegall on banjo\, and 2-time IBMA Bass Player of the Year Mark Schatz on (yep) bass. That’s a mighty long sentence\, but the point is you don’t want to miss Charlie and his band when they hit the Otter Opry stage on Saturday\, August 29th. Period.\nCharlie Torch represents a compelling blend of musical heritage and fresh talent in the bluegrass tradition. The band unites two generations of musicians\, creating a sound that honors traditional roots while carving its own distinctive path through bluegrass\, country\, and mountain music. Check out this writeup from one of their earliest performances: “Charlie Torch walks the line between angelic harmonies and gutbucket truth\, playing at the crossroads where even angels sing the blues. The band draws its listeners in close\, engaging with the old music straight from the heart.”\nCharlie Torch’s music draws deeply from traditional roots\, offering a grounded sound shaped by decades of collective experience but unpretentious in delivery. The band blends elements of bluegrass\, country\, and mountain music into an honest\, well-crafted expression that respects the past while quietly forging its own path forward. And you don’t even have to drive at night to catch this incredible performance. See you there! Online sales end at 9am the day of the show. Tickets will be available at the door.\n3pm. Monterey United Methodist Church\, 1 Soledad Drive\, Monterey. $35/show (CBA members $30; 15 and under free). www.otteropry.org
