SUMMARY:ART EXHIBITION Silt & Sky
DESCRIPTION:Silt and Sky explores the enduring imprint of the Australian landscape and the quiet ways a sense of place settles within us. Through shifting light\, colour and texture\, these works use abstraction as a visual language to express what is often felt but difficult to articulate — tracing the connection between landscape\, memory and emotion. \nBased on the Central Coast of New South Wales\, Kristy Fox is an abstract painter who finds inspiration for her art in every corner of nature. \nKristy’s style is earthy\, textural\, and deeply visceral. Layers of texture\, earthy tones\, and organic marks drawn from the natural world are abundantly evident across all of her paintings. \n“I paint in a way that embraces the beautiful chaos and quiet order of the natural world. Inspired by the wild\, untamed landscapes of Australia\, my pieces are as much a journey of self-exploration as they are an artistic expression.” – Kristy Fox

SUMMARY:DEFIANT DREAMS – 2026 CABRILLO FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:Conducted by Cristian Măcelaru \nLeilehua Lanzilotti: of light and stone (West Coast premiere) \nJames Lee III: Shades of Unbroken Dreams (Alexandra Dariescu\, Piano) (West Coast premiere) \nSarah Hennies: The Grain House (Festival Creative Lab Commission & world premiere) \nCentering voices of resistance and cultural continuity\, this program explores the act of dreaming as a form of defiance. \nLeilehua Lanzilotti‘s of light and stone (West Coast premiere) draws on the legacy of Nā Lani ʻEhā—the “Heavenly Four” of Hawaiian royalty—to honor Indigenous Hawaiian identity\, gathering\, and the enduring power of cultural lineage. \nJames Lee III‘s Shades of Unbroken Dreams (West Coast premiere)\, featuring pianist Alexandra Dariescu\, channels the cadence and moral force of Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech\, reflecting on justice\, equality\, and perseverance. \nSarah Hennies‘s Festival Creative Lab Commission (world premiere) will use the large-scale forces of the orchestra to evoke the complexities of human brain activity\, drawing on psychological and musical studies related to existence\, identity\, and memory. The Creative Lab\, now in its third year\, empowers composers to reimagine the orchestral experience with wide curatorial latitude.

SUMMARY:CONTROL - 2026 CABRILLO FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:Conducted by Cristian Măcelaru \nClarice Assad: Kontrol (Philippe Quint\, Violin) (Festival Commission & world premiere) \nJackson A. Waters: Defending Greenwood (West Coast premiere) \nHannah Ishizaki: Spin (West Coast premiere) \nDan Dediu: Concerto for Orchestra (U.S premiere) \nA genre-expanding program examining power\, agency\, and the forces that shape contemporary life. \nClarice Assad‘s Kontrol (Festival Commission\, world premiere)\, featuring violinist Philippe Quint\, is a genre-defying work for narrator\, projections\, violin\, and orchestra that interrogates the role of technology in human autonomy. \nDefending Greenwood (Movement III: June 1\, 1921) (West Coast premiere) by Jackson A. Waters—winner of the 2026 Cabrillo Emerging Black Composers Prize—bears witness to the Tulsa Race Massacre\, countering historical erasure through musical testimony and remembrance. \nMerging the Viennese waltz with electronic dance music\, Hannah Ishizaki’s Spin (West Coast premiere)\, evokes motion\, disorientation\, and suspended time. As elegant triple-meter gestures collide with pulsing\, club-like rhythms\, the piece blurs past and present\, creating a dizzying soundscape that feels both nostalgic and uncannily immediate. \nDan Dediu‘s Concerto for Orchestra (U.S. premiere) closes the program with a virtuosic and celebratory showcase of the ensemble\, dedicated to Cristian Măcelaru in recognition of their long-standing artistic collaboration.
