Enjoy flagship performances at Harrigan Centennial Hall, where you’ll be captivated by stunning views of Crescent Harbor and majestic eagles soaring overhead as world-class musicians take the stage.
A major highlight of this summer’s festival is the premiere performance of Henry Dehlinger’s To an Alaskan Glacier, a captivating composition for soprano, cello, and piano inspired by Alaska’s awe-inspiring natural beauty. This special presentation brings to life the region’s majestic landscapes through music, making it a must-see event of the season.

With accolades including multiple Grammy Awards and a celebrated career blending classical and American roots music, his performances promise to be a thrilling addition to the lineup.
