"Stravinsky’s ‘Rite,' which concluded the program, was just one of the evening’s thrills.

Esa-Pekka has been named the Music Director of the 2026 @OjaiFestivals!
The 80th Ojai Music Festival will take place June 11-14, 2026.
Ara Guzelimian—Artistic and Executive Director of the festival—said, "Esa-Pekka Salonen is one of the most inventive, adventurous thinkers of 21st-century musical life. The unique format of the Ojai Music Festival gives him an unusually free creative hand as both composer and conductor. I’m thrilled at the prospect of all that he will dream up.”
