The first weekend of the Wintergreen Music Festival starts with an evening filled with peaceful, playful, and programmatic music perfect for the entire family (and grandkids)! Not to mention you’ll witness an impressive display of the Wintergreen Festival Orchestra – plus two pianos! Sit back and let the idyllic sounds of Wagner and the cool mountain breezes wash over you before enjoying Saint-Saëns’ playful and charming masterpiece, Carnival of the Animals.

New this year: Enjoy MountainTop Masterworks performances two ways! Come Saturday night for an illuminative digital enhancement exclusive to the Saturday concert experience (and perfect for the evening backdrop!). On Sunday, conductors add color and perspective to your concert experience beginning with a pre-concert talk beginning at 2:00 pm.
