Singer

Michael Morgan was our beloved Music Director for eight wonderful seasons, and his sudden passing in 2021 was mourned deeply, not only by our community, but all the surrounding musical communities he touched. Join us in a musical celebration featuring many of Michael’s dear friends returning to Bear Valley to celebrate his life and legacy, including rising piano star Oliver Moore on Gershwin’s classic “Rhapsody in Blue”, and superb vocalists, Hope Briggs and Zachary Gordin on the Broadway classics near and dear to Michael’s heart.

Memories of Michael

Bear Valley Music Festival

That maestro of orchestral/electronic collaboration, Mason Bates, brings more of his magic, setting the stage for the Marin Symphony Chorus and vocal soloists, as they close our Masterworks season in the grandest style with Orff’s magnum opus.

MASTERWORKS 4 CARMINA BURANA

Marin Veterans' Memorial Auditorium

Pacific Boychoir Performs Carmina Burana with the Marin Symphony

Marin Center

This World Premiere Event of works by Jake Heggie features three song cycles reimagined as fully staged chamber operas. These three moving narratives share one common theme: the deep human desire for love and acceptance. Festival Opera welcomes a world-class cast of West Coast artists with strong ties to Heggie’s operas and song repertoire. As we celebrate our 30th Anniversary Season, we are thrilled and honored to feature the collaboration and performance of Jake Heggie himself in this newly assembled work. This production is the result of General Director Zachary Gordin’s long standing relationship with Jake Heggie and his works, and of their conversations about what opera can be in this era of rebirth.
