ALL-FAURÉ PROGRAM
The festival is thrilled to return to the Maybeck as we kick off our 7th season! The 2024 festival speaks (and sings) with a distinctly French accent as we celebrate the life and music of Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) in his centennial year. Not only was Fauré an inspired voice in of 19th and 20th century music, his oeuvre occupies a unique position in the repertoire: it is equally beloved and unknown. Join us in discovering hidden gems of Fauré's music while rediscovering your favorites.
