Music in the Vineyards is a world renowned chamber music festival held each August in stunning winery settings in the Napa Valley. The festival showcases distinguished musicians and emerging young talent during its four week season. With complimentary wine tastings at each intermission and breathtaking views of the Napa valley, this unique combination of wine country ambiance and great musicianship allows audiences to experience chamber music in the small intimate settings it was intended for.
Mozart’s effervescent Oboe Quartet precedes the premiere of a work for piano and strings that we co-commissioned from noted CA-based composer John Wineglass. We close with Brahms’ autumnal String Quintet which was to be his final work, before what turned out to be a failed retirement.
