It’s about farmers and ranchers\, and the land and the water. It’s about the idea of sharing sustenance with those you care about in the context of a meal. It’s about connecting with the rich cultural history that has been passed on to us through the foods we eat.” She believes that eating is more than supplying our bodies with fuel\, though not discounting the value of healthy foods. Instead\, eating feeds our souls as well as our bodies. Food provides a context for our history\, our lives and our relationships.”\n\nWines by Handley Cellars\nHandley Cellars is a small family-owned Mendocino County winery producing around 12\,000 cases a year. “At Handley Cellars\, we firmly believe in a conscious and conscientious approach to farming and winemaking. We purchase grapes from small\, local\, family growers\, and whenever possible\, we select fruit that is farmed organically. Our winemaking philosophy is to let the distinctive qualities of each vineyard shine through. Working with carefully tended\, exceptional sites\, we strive to create wines which faithfully reflect the unique characteristics of the vineyards and viticultural region\, focusing on our appellation of Anderson Valley. From start to finish\, we are mindful of our impact on our rural valley\, and the implications of our farming and wine making choices for future generations.”\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nSorry\, this event is full URL:https://mendocinomusic.org/event/elegance-in-elk-2015/ LOCATION:The Prow House\, 7300 South Highway One\, Elk\, CA\, 95432\, United States CATEGORIES:Benefit Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mendocinomusic.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/AOI-tall-cliff-web.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Mendocino Music Festival":MAILTO:info@mendocinomusic.org GEO:39.118756;-123.715405 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=The Prow House 7300 South Highway One Elk CA 95432 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=7300 South Highway One:geo:-123.715405,39.118756 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150725T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150725T200000 DTSTAMP:20260430T222308 CREATED:20150311T074528Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160210T020924Z UID:10002131-1437854400-1437854400@mendocinomusic.org SUMMARY:Closing Night 2015 DESCRIPTION:Featured wines at this performance \nSpencer Myer\, piano \nTwo monumental works of the classical repertoire will be featured at the final concert of the season.

It was something close to ecstasy.” – New York Newsday \nIn lieu of a fee for her appearance\, Frederica von Stade has requested the Festival make a donation to the Young Musicians Choral Orchestra. The Festival gratefully acknowledges Janet Morris and Fred Martin for generously underwriting this donation. \n\nCHOOSE SEATS AND BUY \n\nMozart in Mendocino\, a Four-Part Series\nThis Susan Waterfall Production is a four-day exploration of the lesser-known aspects of Mozart’s life and music\, with examinations of his social and cultural context\, both silly and serious. Why was Punch the drink of the Enlightenment? How did Mozart’s bawdy brand of family humor serve to balance his deeply introspective bouts of composing? A coda to the Mozart festivities will be Spencer Myer’s performance of Piano Concerto No. 21 K. 467 with the Festival Orchestra. People came away from last year’s Bachfest saying\, “I thought I knew all about Bach\, but I learned so many fascinating details”. Now on to Mozart! \n“Waterfall’s productions—which in the past have included such diverse themes as Scandalous Music! Satie\, Debussy\, Ravel and Stravinsky; Bartok’s Women; and Degenerate Music\, the modern music of Germany (and the German émigré community) during the Weimar Republic\, the Nazi era and World War II—always present exciting\, absorbing playing of great music\, but are also rare\, distinctive examples of what can be called music education\, though they’re more conversational\, truly a sharing of perspective\, interest\, anecdote … Her manner is like a friend’s turning at a dinner table to answer a question with expert information and wit.

The Festival Chamber Players will perform two of Mozart’s most serious and introspective masterpieces for these settings. Wind octets usually were light outdoor music for royal parties\, but in K. 388 Mozart used the instrumental combination to explore the pathos and drama of the key of C minor.  The G minor Viola Quintet (K. 516) was written at the time of Mozart’s father’s final illness. Mozart’s peaking creative powers enabled him to unify this emotionally turbulent four movement work\, just as his own world was falling apart.\nBUY TICKETS\n\n \n \nMozart in Mendocino\, a Four-Part Series\nThis Susan Waterfall production is a four-day exploration of the lesser-known aspects of Mozart’s life and music\, with examinations of his social and cultural context\, both silly and serious.

It’s something unique that needs to be experienced.” Ken Bullock\, Berkeley Daily Planet \n \n \n\n\n\nBUY TICKETS URL:https://mendocinomusic.org/event/mozart-with-punch-and-dreck-2015/ LOCATION:Tent Concert Hall\, 45035 Main Street\, Mendocino\, CA\, 95460\, United States CATEGORIES:Chamber Music,Classical,Lecture,Performance ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mendocinomusic.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Maria_Anna_Mozart_Lorenzoniwithpunchand-Wolfie400pxhweb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Mendocino Music Festival":MAILTO:info@mendocinomusic.org GEO:39.3052095;-123.7977708 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Tent Concert Hall 45035 Main Street Mendocino CA 95460 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=45035 Main Street:geo:-123.7977708,39.3052095 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150718T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150718T200000 DTSTAMP:20260430T222308 CREATED:20150311T074527Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180207T221949Z UID:10002249-1437249600-1437249600@mendocinomusic.org SUMMARY:Festival Big Band featuring Kathleen Grace 2015 DESCRIPTION:Featured wines at this performance The Festival Big Band comprises seventeen nimble\, creative\, steaming and swinging pros who come together year after year for the sheer love of music-making with bandleader Allan Pollack\, and for the joy of playing for wildly enthusiastic sold out audiences in the big tent on the bluffs.

The Wall Street Journal calls his playing “flawless\,” and New York Guitar Festival director David Spelman hails him as “a treasure.” Having performed previously at the Festival\, he returns to perform his original compositions and unique arrangements—from Hendrix to Gershwin—as well as new compositions for Harp Guitar.  His long-running Summer Intensive Guitar Workshop\, held here on the coast\, runs concurrently with the Festival\, and this year he will be joined on stage by his students to perform a guitar ensemble composition he has composed for the occasion. \nAlex de Grassi\, both Grammy and Indie award nominee\, is an intriguing artist whose mastery of acoustic finger-picking styles includes a variety of techniques and ethnic influences. With trumpet as his first instrument\, he discovered guitar at age thirteen and never looked back. Although primarily self-taught\, de Grassi studied with noted teacher Bill Thrasher. His background also includes a degree in Urban Geography from UC Berkeley and performing as a street artist in London. \nDe Grassi has performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival\, Carnegie Hall\, Belfast International Festival\, Telluride and Wolftrap. He has taught at the National Summer Guitar Workshop and the Milwaukee Conservatory of Music\, among others\, and has his own workshop series. The musician was the subject of a PBS concert/interview television show\, “Alex de Grassi: The Artist’s Profile.” \nBUY TICKETS URL:https://mendocinomusic.org/event/alex-degrassi-2015/ LOCATION:Preston Hall\, 44867 Main Street\, Mendocino\, CA\, 95460\, United States CATEGORIES:Jazz,Performance ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mendocinomusic.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Alex-D.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Mendocino Music Festival":MAILTO:info@mendocinomusic.org GEO:39.30529;-123.7972762 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Preston Hall 44867 Main Street Mendocino CA 95460 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=44867 Main Street:geo:-123.7972762,39.30529 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150718T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150718T100000 DTSTAMP:20260430T222308 CREATED:20150310T071730Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190615T222644Z UID:10002209-1437213600-1437213600@mendocinomusic.org SUMMARY:Rehearsal\, Big Band (7/18) DESCRIPTION: URL:https://mendocinomusic.org/event/rehearsal-big-band-2015/ LOCATION:Tent Concert Hall\, 45035 Main Street\, Mendocino\, CA\, 95460\, United States CATEGORIES:Rehearsal ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mendocinomusic.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Big-BandMMF09-NWilsonPhoto-e1417543387911.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Mendocino Music Festival":MAILTO:info@mendocinomusic.org GEO:39.3052095;-123.7977708 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Tent Concert Hall 45035 Main Street Mendocino CA 95460 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=45035 Main Street:geo:-123.7977708,39.3052095 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150717T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20150717T200000 DTSTAMP:20260430T222308 CREATED:20150311T074527Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180207T222025Z UID:10002246-1437163200-1437163200@mendocinomusic.org SUMMARY:Opera: Barber of Seville 2015 DESCRIPTION:Featured wines at this performance \nThis promises to be a magical production of one of the funniest operas of all times.
