Many of the great musicians of our time have presented classes and performances at Hidden Valley. Our Masters' Festival Series continues the tradition in the summer of 2019 with six concerts featuring the talents of our Master Class teachers for English Horn, Flute, Jazz Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, and Cello. 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.
