Festival Napa Valley’s Opening Night with Festival Orchestra Napa
July 14 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
$20 – $35
Festival Napa Valley kicks off its 17th season with a celebratory evening featuring two beloved masterpieces and one world premiere. The concert opens with a new work by rising young composer Yang Bao. Spanish guitarist Pablo Sáinz Villegas takes center stage for Joaquín Rodrigo’s iconic Concierto de Aranjuez. The evening culminates with pianist Alexander Malofeev performing Sergei Rachmaninoff’s lush Piano Concerto No. 2 – a fitting tribute to one of the world’s greatest composers on his 150th Anniversary. Kyle Dickson, 2023 recipient of the Joel Revzen Conducting Fellowship, leads Festival Orchestra Napa.
A selection of artwork created by participants in the Festival’s How I See Music workshops will be projected during the performance.
Food and wine will be available for purchase.
