PMF Concert 1: American Masterworks

Peninsula Music Festival’s first concert of the season opens with a bang—and a legend. Two-time GRAMMY Award winner James Ehnes, one of the most celebrated violinists alive, returns to the PMF stage performing on the legendary 1715 “Marsick” Stradivarius. Expect jazz-infused Bernstein, the percussive power of Joan Tower, and the breathtaking Barber Violin Concerto. All-American. All unforgettable.

All performances take place at Door Community Auditorium in Fish Creek as part of the nine-concert Peninsula Music Festival from August 4–22, 2026. Tickets are available now at www.musicfestival.com or by calling the Festival box office at (920) 854-4060.
