Aspen Music Festival 2026

The Aspen Music Festival and School 2026 invites audiences into one of the world’s most inspiring summer celebrations of classical music — a place where artistic excellence, creative freedom, and the beauty of the Rocky Mountains exist in perfect harmony. From July 1 to August 23, 2026, Aspen transforms into a vibrant cultural retreat where internationally acclaimed musicians, rising young artists, and music lovers from around the globe come together for nearly two hundred performances in an atmosphere unlike any other.

Programme
Carlos Simon: Fate Now Conquers
Jessie Montgomery: These Righteous Paths
Gustav Mahler: Symphony no. 1 in D major "Titan"
Overview

Be inspired by two works that capture both the intimacy and drama of the human experience!

Named the 2025 Classical Woman of the Year by NPR’s Performance Today, Grammy Award-winning composer and violinist Jessie Montgomery wrote her cello concerto for South African cellist Abel Selaocoe. In the composer’s words, it’s “very sentimental because it’s very much about mothers and about care. It’s a series of lullabies and songs that are specifically from mothers to children, or love songs of some kind. So those sentiments of love and adoration and magnetism, magnitude, those things are all wonderful inspirations.”

“It came gushing out like a mountain torrent,” Mahler said of his First Symphony. Written for a huge orchestra and full of youthful Romanticism, the work follows the journey of Mahler’s “hero” through episodes of optimism, struggle, death, and ultimately triumph.
