Baroque Music Festival, Corona del Mar 2026

Bright Cecilia! The Power of Harmony

Celebrating the patron saint of music Saint Cecilia, and the power of harmony she inspires, director-violinist Elizabeth Blumenstock, international soloists, and Festival ensembles bring you the 46th edition of the Baroque Music Festival, Corona del Mar. Concerts include Handel’s grand Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day, Parisian ballet suites, Italian concertos, Bach violin sonatas, Spanish guitar quintets, and more. As we come together for the annual June season that began in 1981, we welcome you, or welcome you back, for five concerts of richly varied Baroque music over eight days, performed in intimate venues in Corona del Mar and Newport Beach.
