Presented by HVMS

Many of the great musicians of our time have presented classes and performances at Hidden Valley.  Our Masters' Festival Series continues the tradition this summer with six concerts featuring the talents of our Master Class teachers for English Horn, Cello, Oboe, Bassoon, Flute, and Clarinet.  These master musicians leave their symphony orchestras behind to bring you an intimate evening of music focused on solo & duo instruments as you've never heard them before.
