Date: 2025-10-18T19:00:00-07:00
Description: Carmel/Monterey CA – Come celebrate the Monterey Symphony’s 80th Anniversary season opening concerts on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at 7:30 PM and Sunday, October 19, 2025, at 3:00 PM with Music Director and conductor Jayce Ogren. “We begin our 80th anniversary season with the world premiere of Anemology, a Monterey Symphony co-commission with the Seattle and Utah symphonies. This brilliant, colorful, and intoxicating new work pairs one of the greatest composers of our time, Steven Mackey, with one of the most dynamic soloists working today, saxophonist Timothy McAllister. It’s not to be missed, nor is Rachmaninoff’s dramatic and tuneful Symphony No. 2, one of my favorite pieces in the repertoire,” says Jayce Ogren. “McAllister possesses a rare and special virtuosity which I’ve become familiar with through various collaborations over the past 20 years. His playing howls, grooves, flutters, and flows like the wind,” says Mackey. Mackey worked closely with McAllister during the composition process to explore the saxophone’s range of sounds, textures, and extended techniques, shaping the wind-inspired sound world the composer envisioned. “In Anemology, the saxophone soloist is the wind, and the orchestra is the landscape, topography, scenery, etc. that is stirred and animated by its movement,” says Mackey. SATURDAY: All Saturday night patrons are invited to an opening night pre-concert party in the Sunset Center lobby. Guests will be treated to live music, one complimentary glass of champagne, and a photobooth. The event is 6:00-7:30 PM and is included with all concert tickets. Additionally, a pre-concert lecture by Musicologist Christopher Anderson-Bazzoli with guest composer Steve Mackey will be held on Saturday, 6:30-7:00 PM in the Sunset Center auditorium. SUNDAY: The Symphony Lobby Sessions return this season with live music in the lobby from 1:30-1:50 PM. The October Lobby Session features Symphony principal bassoonist Anne Ranzani. Additionally, a pre-concert lecture by Music Director Jayce Ogren with guest composer Steve Mackey will be held on Sunday, 2:00-2:30 PM, in the Sunset Center auditorium. About the Monterey Symphony: The Monterey Symphony was founded in 1946 and presents double weekend performances during the academic calendar, opening the season at Forest Theater, followed by six more programs at the Sunset Center in Carmel-by-the-Sea. For each program, the Symphony orchestra is comprised of 80 professional musicians from throughout California. The Symphony is committed to bringing people together through orchestral classical music and using the healing powers of music to transform lives. The Symphony actively engages patrons of all ages through a variety of partnerships and initiatives, including performances for thousands of local school children. Jayce Ogren, the Symphony's 12th Music Director, recently renewed his contract through 2030. The Symphony’s stated mission is to entertain and engage our community through musical performance and education. Monterey Symphony regularly receives national attention for the strength of its audience support, robust subscription renewals and audience retention. www.montereysymphony.org

Description: Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a traditional Mexican holiday that celebrates life and death and honors deceased loved ones. It\'s traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, and sometimes over a three-day period from October 31 to November 2; however, celebrations can take place anytime in the Fall.

Altars (ofrendas) - Family altars, ofrendas, and altars in civic spaces are filled with offerings to the dead.

Description: Presented by the Carmel Bach Festival Directed by Rachel Podger This November, the festival will be featuring the internationally acclaimed Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra and beloved violinist Rachel Podger. Many of the musicians in this performance are also apart of the Carmel Bach Festival orchestra, so we are excited to welcome them back this Fall. Fresh off their celebrated 2024 tour, Tafelmusik returns with Brilliant Baroque—a spirited program that captures the energy, elegance, and joy of baroque music. From the stately courts of England to the vibrant streets of Venice, this musical journey includes works by Handel, Purcell, Avison, Reichenauer, Vivaldi, and, of course, J.S. Bach. Rachel Podger, hailed by the BBC for her “infectiously spritely bounce and exhilarating dramatic tension,” leads the orchestra in Bach’s Violin Concerto in A Minor, alongside Vivaldi’s exhilarating Concerto for Four Violins and an enchanting orchestral suite by Reichenauer.
