Like an orchestra, the community that supports the Aspen Music Festival and School plays many distinct roles. There would be no music without our students and young artists—and no students without our talented artist-faculty. Our audiences are able to enjoy these performances thanks to the dedication of our hardworking volunteers and professional staff. And it is our guest artists and conductors who inspire our orchestras to perform at the highest level—to the joy and benefit of us all.
This summer we invite you to experience the AMFS in all its vibrant dimensions. While many know about our grand orchestral concerts in the Klein Music Tent, the intimate chamber music and recitals in Harris Concert Hall, and the unforgettable opera productions at the Wheeler Opera House, there is so much more to discover. Consider attending a Prelude before a Sunday concert—an engaging introduction to the music you’ll hear that afternoon. Take in a performance atop Aspen Mountain on a sunny Saturday, or enjoy music in an elegant private home, complete with a glass of wine. Attend a master class, where students are coached by internationally acclaimed artists. Or seek out the debut performances of new-to-Aspen artists such as Patricia Kopatchinskaja, Tom Borrow, and Davóne Tines. The possibilities are inspiring—and endless.
We also invite you to consider becoming a member of the AMFS National Council. This passionate group of supporters provides essential financial backing and serves as dedicated ambassadors and hosts. National Council members share a deep love for music made in the mountains and a commitment to the ongoing success of the AMFS.
