Music In The Mountains

Music in the Mountains SummerFest has been an annual summer classical music festival in Nevada County, California since 1982.[1][2] The non-profit organization, Music in the Mountains.org (MIM) holds events throughout the year in a variety of style for all ages.[3] The artistic and music director was Hungarian conductor, Gregory Vajda from 2009 until 2016.[4] Concerts take place in Grass Valley and Nevada City. MIM also sponsors Sierra Brewfest with many local microbreweries.[5]

The California Youth Symphony was expected to do a repeat performance for Music in the Mountains, this time with the 80-plus member chorus in March 2020, but the event was cancelled as a precautionary measure during COVID-19 pandemic in California[6][7]
