Local roots, soaring music. Symphony Tierra brings together an innovative combination of student musicians, community players, and professional artists for an afternoon of orchestral music that celebrates both classical traditions and contemporary voices. This project-based ensemble, founded by Dr. Christina Howell and conducted by Samantha Burgess, creates musical experiences that connect our community while providing mentorship opportunities for emerging musicians alongside seasoned performers. Symphony Tierra is made possible with sponsorship by Festival Napa Valley.
