Poetry and Music with the Mill Valley Philharmonic

The mission of Mill Valley Philharmonic is to enrich the cultural life of the region by offering free orchestral programs, from masterworks to world premieres, to people of all ages and means in their own communities. 

Founded in Fall, 2000 as a 15-piece string ensemble, Mill Valley Philharmonic today includes a music director/conductor and fifty-five auditioned volunteer musicians playing strings, winds, brass, timpani and percussion. The Philharmonic presents masterworks and world premieres, engaging both local composers and soloists in its programs. Innovative programming is a hallmark of Mill Valley Philharmonic's vision; audience education in an integral component of all performances. 

On June 3 - 5 the Philharmonic presents a special poetry and music series. The first portion of the program will feature symphonic music inspired by poetry. This will be followed by Tectonic, a world premiere by poet Jane Hirshfield and composer Clark Suprynowicz. Don't miss the exciting night, fusing two beloved creative arts.
