Testimonial:

"I just never wanted to leave this place. Everything about this house, the staff, the food was amazing. I only stay at the best 5-star hotels in the world and this makes the Four Seasons look shabby which is hard to do. Thanks so much for a wonderful holiday and we will for sure be coming back! The fact that concierge handled buying groceries for my kids, fancy dinner reservations for my husband and booking spas for my sister meant I could actually enjoy my vacation stress free!” — Tatiana, May 2017

This concert will also feature a side-by-side performance with members of the Honors Orchestra of Youth Music Monterey County (YMMC).

The season, titled "Concert Grand," under the direction of Maestro Max Bragado-Darman, opened Oct. 14-15, and runs through May 19-20.

Huh, silver medalist at the 2015 Santander Piano Competition, will lend his talents to Sergei Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3, Op. 26, in this powerful program, which also will include the Symphony's interpretation of Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 6, Op. 68 ("Pastoral.)

Recognized for his sense of poetry and technical brilliance, Huh has performed extensively throughout Europe, Asia and the United States, and has appeared in numerous festivals, including recitals at Animato den Paris, San Francisco Music Festival, and Leipzig Euro Music Festival, among many others.

This will be Huh’s first appearance with the Monterey Symphony.

Guest pianists in Season 72 will also include Josu de Solaun, Juan Perez Floristan, Phillipe Bianconi, and Michael Davidman, who was selected by guest conductor Conner Gray Covington, who will preside over the March 17-18 program.

The symphony will perform pieces by Dvorak, Beethoven, Schumann, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Prokofiev, de Falla and Tchaikovsky.

All programs will be performed at the Sunset Center (Ninth Avenue, between San Carlos and Mission streets) in Carmel at 8 p.m. on Saturdays and 3 p.m. on Sundays. Special youth concerts, also at the Sunset Center, have been scheduled March 19 and April 23, with performances at 9:30 and 11 a.m. on each date.

Symphony audiences will remember de Solaun for his previous solo recital, featuring Mussogorky's Pictures at an Exhibition.

Program 4: March 17-18 (with youth concert on March 19)

Celebrate St. Patrick's Day weekend with the Monterey Symphony and wall-to-wall Mozart, a program that will include the overture from his beloved opera, Don Giovanni.

This concert will be performed under the baton of guest conductor Connor Gray Covington (recently appointed Assistant Conductor of the Utah Symphony) and will include Mozart's Symphony No. 1, KV 16, and Symphony No. 41, KV 551 ("Jupiter").

Covington is currently completing his tenure as the Rita E. Hauser Conducting Fellow at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, where he is being mentored by Philadelphia Orchestra Music Director Yannick Nezet-Seguin. He recently made his debut with the Curtis Symphony at Carnegie Hall, sharing the podium with Ludovic Morlot.

Special guest pianist Michael Davidman, selected by Covington, will also be part of this spectacular program.

New York City-born Davidman started piano lessons at age 5, studying with Efrem Briskin at Manhattan School of Music, studied conducting with Jonathan Strasser and David Gilbert and is currently studying piano with Robert McDonald at Curtis Institute of Music since fall 2015.

An avid opera enthusiast, exceptional sight reader, chamber player, and accompanist, he has won numerous first-place awards in various competitions and recently completed the four-year scholarship program with The Chopin Foundation of the United States.

Davidman has performed at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall, Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center, Kimmel Center, Sandler Center, Symphony Space, Merkin Hall, DiMenna Center, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Steinway Hall, Bechstein Hall, as well as recitals in Italy, Spain, and Russia.

Symphony No. 4, Op. 90 ("Italian") -- a piece Mendelssohn, himself, declared to be the "jolliest" he ever composed. Regarded as a beacon among new generations of Spanish and European musicians, Perez has performed with the Saint Petersburg Philharmonic, Malmo Symphony, Radio Television Espanola, Seville Royal Symphony, Gran Canaria Philharmonic, Malaga and Cordoba Symphonies,  and the Andres Segovia and Spanish National Youth Orchestras.

Program 6: May 19-20

The incomparable Phillipe Bianconi will be at the piano for the Monterey Symphony's final program of the season, performing Franz Liszt's Piano Concerto No. 2. Liszt perfected the art of thematic transformation and took it to an extreme level with this impassioned concerto.

French pianist Bianconi has been described as an artist whose playing is “always close to the soul of the music, filling the space with poetry and life” (Washington Post), “an extraordinary exhibition of musicianship, technical control and good taste which lent the music a freshness, immediacy and conviction one all too seldom encounters” (The London Times). After winning the Silver Medal in the Seventh Van Cliburn International Competition, Bianconi made an acclaimed recital debut at Carnegie Hall in 1987 and, since then, has enthralled audiences and critics throughout the world.

Also featured will be Manuel de Falla's lovely Noches en los Jardines de Espana, his most impressionist-style work, which details three gardens in a setting for piano and orchestra.

New Children’s Singalong Album ‘Let’s Sing!’ From Bay Area Folk Singer and Her Group Now Available in Time for the Holidays

 Kathy Sherman has been a professional folk musician for 44 years and a music teacher for nine. She performs in three different folk bands and has released five recordings.

Los Altos, CA, October 21, 2017 — Kathy Sherman has been a professional folk musician for 44 years and a music teacher for nine. She performs in three different folk bands and has released five recordings. So for her sixth album, she drew on all her experiences as a musician and teacher.

“I teach pre-school music and these are songs I do with my students,” says Sherman about her sixth and latest release, a children’s singalong album “Let’s Sing!” recorded with her group the Good Folk Collective. “And they just happen to be some of my favorites.”

The 18-song “Let’s Sing!” available at amazon.com and store.cdbaby.com, features such all-time favorite sing-alongs such as “The Hokey Pokey,” “She’ll Be Comin’ ’Round the Mountain,” “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad,” “How Much is That Doggie in the Window,” and “Teddy Bear’s Picnic.”

But it also includes some lesser-known gems such as the silly “echo” songs,“I Am a Pizza,” and “I Am the Conductor”, “The State Laughs,” which follows​ ​a​ ​joke​ ​and​ ​the​ ​response​ ​it​ ​gets​ ​in​ ​different​ ​states​ ​of the​ ​country (in Tennessee, they say hee, hee hee), and “Jenny​ Jenkins,” an​ ​old​ ​musical​ ​game​ ​where​ ​one​ ​singer​ ​suggests​ ​a​ ​color​ ​and​ ​another​ ​singer must​ ​come​ ​up​ ​with​ ​a​ ​rhyming​ ​word.​

“Kids and parents love these songs. Not only are they fun to sing, they all have a physical component too, clapping, stomping, playing percussion, helping children make important neural connections and giving parents a chance to get some exercise, as well!” says Sherman, “and you’ve gotta have some elements of humor, otherwise it’s not fun.”

The album also has an accompanying “Let’s Sing!” songbook, which includes all of the songs on “Let’s Sing!,” as well as selected songs from her group Hey Mom!’s “Listen to Your Mama” and “Singing on a Star.” Sherman has included simple chords in the same key as on the albums so even beginning musicians can play along on guitar, ukulele, autoharp or piano.

The Let’s Sing! Songbook is available at magcloud.com, both the CD and songbook can also be purchased at GoodFolkSongs.com. The album and songbook will make for excellent holiday gifts for children and parents alike.

“What I’m trying to do is create a musical community,” says Sherman, who wants to preserve some of the great folk songs and traditions for the next generation. “These songs are brand-new to many people, especially if you weren’t born and raised in the U.S. A lot of people have been trying to define folk music. To me it’s community music. It’s songs that everybody knows and everybody can sing, music that has worked it’s way into our DNA.”

In addition to the Good Folk Collective and Hey Mom!, Sherman is also member of the Greek folk duo The Plaka Band. She has recorded and released six albums with the three groups.

Kathy teaches 17 pre-school music classes a week to approximately 300​ ​children​ ​and​ ​parents, with​ ​students​ ​ranging​ ​in​ ​age​ ​from​ ​2​ ​½​ ​​ ​to​ ​5​ ​½ years.​ ​She​ ​also lectures​ ​parents’​ ​groups​ ​on​ ​pre-intellectual​ ​music​ ​education​ ​and​ ​creating​ ​a​ ​more​ ​musical​ ​home environment.

About Kathy Sherman

Kathy Sherman started ​her​ ​professional​ ​music​ ​career​ ​at​ ​age​ ​15,​ ​playing​ ​Greek​ ​music​ ​in​ ​clubs, restaurants,​ ​festivals​, and​ ​concerts.​ ​She​ ​put​ ​down​ ​her​ ​bouzouki, the mandolin-like instrument central to modern Greek music,​ ​long​ ​enough​ ​to​ ​earn​ ​a​ ​BMus​ ​in classical​ ​guitar​ ​performance​ ​from​ ​the​ ​San​ ​Francisco​ ​Conservatory​ ​of​ Music.​ ​She​ ​was​ ​a​ ​member of​ ​the​ ​Electric​ ​Guitar​ ​Quartet,​ ​a​ ​classical​ ​/​ ​comedy​ ​group​ ​that​ ​opened​ ​for​ ​such​ ​guitar​ ​luminaries as​ ​Leo​ ​Kottke,​ ​Jorma​ ​Kaukonen,​ ​John​ ​Hartford,​ ​The​ ​Great​ Guitars​ ​(Barney​ ​Kessel,​ ​Charlie​ ​Byrd, and​ ​Herb​ ​Ellis)​ ​and​ ​Free​ ​Flight.

One such group is The Burns Supper Club, where we get together on or around January 25th of each year to provide Celtic music for the celebration of the life and works of the great Scottish poet Robert Burns (1759-1796). According to RobertBurns.org, “Burns Suppers range from stentoriously formal gatherings of esthetes and scholars to uproariously informal rave-ups of drunkards and louts.” Our celebration falls somewhere in between.

Monterey-based Baker’s Bacon All-Natural Uncured Back Bacon Available for First Time to Public Will Be Sold through Allen Brothers, Country’s Top Purveyor of Premium Steaks and Other Prime Meats

The country’s finest bacon, Baker’s Bacon all-natural uncured back bacon, will now be available to the public nationally for the first time and sold through Allen Brothers, the country’s top purveyor of prime steaks and premium meats.

Monterey, CA, October 9, 2017 — The country’s finest bacon, Baker’s Bacon all-natural uncured back bacon, will now be available to the public nationally for the first time and sold through Allen Brothers, the country’s top purveyor of prime steaks and premium meats.

Baker’s Bacon, created in 2011 by renowned chef Tony Baker of Monterey’s Montrio Bistro, will be featured in the Allen Brothers’ Fall/Holiday catalog as well as on its website, https://www.allenbrothers.com/bakers-back-bacon.html and https://www.allenbrothers.com/bakers-peppered-bacon.html.

Allen Brothers, which deals exclusively with premium meats, will feature three offerings of Baker’s Bacon: English-Style “Uncured” Back Bacon, Dry-Cured Double Apple Wood Smoked Bacon, as well as a peppered version of the latter. This is the first time the uncured bacon will be sold to the public at retail.

“We are very excited to be working with what has long time been recognized as one of the country's top beef houses,” said Baker. “We get so many requests from the public to be able to purchase our bacon, which up until now has only been available to the foodservice industry, I couldn’t think of a better partner to help us make this a reality.”

Far beyond the quality you'll find at your local butcher shop, Allen Brothers' luxurious USDA Prime and Wagyu steaks — once reserved exclusively for some of the nation's top steakhouses including Hall's Chophouse, Nick & Sam’s, David Burke’s Prime House, Bourbon Steak & Gallagher's Steakhouse — are available to discerning home chefs and grillers nationwide. Named one of the best online butchers in America by Town & Country and Forbes Magazines, Allen Brothers is still located near the historic Union Stock Yard on Chicago's South Side, where its artisan butchers have expertly hand-cut prime steaks since 1893.

In addition to prime steaks, Allen Brothers also sells pork, lamb, veal, game, poultry and seafood.

Baker’s Bacon is also distributed wholesale to restaurants in San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Chicago, Miami and New York City, and is proudly featured on menus of some of the top chefs in the country.

Chef Tony Baker of Montrio Bistro in Monterey, California, created this style of bacon for his restaurant, now it's available to you. “It takes me back to my English roots. It really doesn't get any better than this!”

About Baker’s Bacon
Unable to find a naturally dry-cured back bacon anywhere in the states, Chef Tony Baker decided it was time to bring a taste of the UK across the pond. As a professional chef and restaurateur for over 20 years, Tony desires the finest of ingredients in every dish he prepares. Missing from the list was back bacon, made using only the best ingredients from the swine on up. Out of that desire for quality and freshness came Baker’s latest product, English-Style “Uncured” Back Bacon.

Baker’s Bacon was founded with the help of partner Steve Sacks of Prime Smoked Meats in Oakland, California, starting with a long, slow, dry cure, followed by a long and low smoke in a 60-plus-year-old smoke house. Baker’s Bacon has a culture of sustainability with all of its business practices starting with its commitment to humane, crate free, antibiotic free pork from US family farms, even the marketing materials and reusable sampling containers.

About Allen Brothers
Since 1893 — no compromises. Allen Brothers is the leading purveyor of award-winning USDA Prime beef — The Great Steakhouse Steaks — serving many top restaurants nationwide and direct to consumer.

Steaks are what made Allen Brothers famous. We offer Dry- and Wet-Aged USDA Prime, Wagyu, and Kobe beef, Bone-in or Boneless, Natural or Grass-Fed that are hand-selected from the finest breeds of beef cattle raised on only the highly-regarded farms and ranches in the Midwest. Our artisan butchers age the beef and then hand-cut all of our meat to to ensure beautiful, tender cuts for your kitchen, BBQ or grill. Simply put: we offer the best beef in America.

Allen Brothers has received accolades from many of Americas finest chefs and media including David Burke, Kevin Rathbun, Forbes Magazine, Town and Country Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Gear Patrol and many others.

Founded in Chicago’s famed Union Stockyards meat market, Allen Brothers still operates in the same neighborhood that shaped the American beef industry more than 120 years ago.

About John Lewis
John Lewis found his calling as a college student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, though it wasn’t how you might expect a career path to unfold. Flash forward to 2017, as Lewis is now the founder of Lewis Builders, which specializes in designing and building custom homes, doing design/build remodels and “aging-in-place” renovations for retirees, older people and those with health concerns. His firm employs 15 people and moved into new offices in The Barnyard Shopping Center in Carmel.

“We have a passion for helping those who are aging and just want to keep their dignity and independence in their own homes,” says Lewis. “We're trying to educate the public on design/build and aging-in-place.”

Design/build, simply put, is the same company doing the design and construction, from conception to completion, of a custom home or remodel. Design/builders have a better conception of the real costs of a project and how to fit that into a client's budget; it saves significant time in the overall project; and the construction team works collaboratively with the design team.

Aging-in-place is customizing homes with innovative, aesthetically pleasing solutions that alleviate the physical challenges of aging or injury.

It's not just a specialty, Lewis Builders is a credentialed expert in CAPS (Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist). A program of the National Association of Home Builders, the Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) designation program teaches the technical, business management, and customer service skills essential to competing in the fastest growing segment of the residential remodeling industry: home modifications for the aging-in-place.

“When people discover that cost of living in an assisted-living facility can be $10,000 or $20,000 a month, making modifications to their own homes becomes a no-brainer," he says. “The ultimate result is that people are able to live comfortably and safely in their homes into their later years, rather than moving into costly assisted-living facilities.”

Born and raised in Monterey County, the youngest of five children, Lewis’s passion for the creative process of designing and building custom homes and remodels that started with small repair jobs in college, has now become his life's work.
