Join conductor Paul Kimball for a special afternoon preview of the upcoming St. John’s Chamber Orchestra Festival.

Since its inaugural concert in 2002, the St. John’s Chamber Orchestra Festival has been a much-anticipated event on the Stockton cultural scene. Founded by retired University of the Pacific music professor and Conservatory dean, George Buckbee, the festival is now led by Paul Kimball.

This season’s three-concert journey begins with Milhaud’s Creation of the World, explores jazz, Beckler and Chopin, and the 1960s with the St. John’s Pops Choir. The final performance features Mahler, Bach and Britten and traditional music from the Dia de los Muertos. Festival performances will be held January 24, 29 and 31.

Museum members and children under 10 accompanied by an adult are free. For disabled access, please call the museum ahead of time at (209) 940-6300 or 940-6317.
