Monterey Symphony presents two concerts on Saturday, April 20, 2024, at 7:30 PM and Sunday, April 21, 2024, at 3:00 PM with the following works:
Adolphus HAILSTORK Epitaph to a Man Who Dreamed

These April concerts are dedicated to Steve Friedlander, Executive Director of the Carmel Bach Festival.
Loma Prieta Peak is located just north of Monterey County, part of the Loma Prieta fault line that was the locus of the disastrous 1989 earthquake. At the center of this concert—like the center of the quake that disrupted so many lives, is music about loss. It is an elegiac program, yet there is an ineffable beauty in each piece that breathes life into the spaces they inhabit.
Pre-concert lectures are included with the Symphony ticket and are held one before each performance in the main concert hall and last approximately 30-minutes.
