Music Illuminated by Music in the Vineyards

Music in the Vineyards, now in its 29th season, is a nationally-acclaimed chamber music festival held each summer in the Napa Valley showcasing world-class artists performing in winery settings. Concerts feature witty commentary, wine tasting, and breathtaking views.

Igor Stravinsky and His Love Affair with Ballet Music: We welcome back renowned pianist and composer John Novacek for an enlightening discussion and performance about one of the 20th century’s most influential musicians, Igor Stravinsky. The focus will be on his eleven ballets, the genre he influenced most, including Petroushka, The Firebird and The Right of Spring.

You will be welcomed with a glass of sparkling wine before John’s one-hour presentation. Afterward, linger on the beautiful Napa terrace of a stunning private home (address issued after ticket purchase) with wine and appetizers along with musical conversation.
