Music In The Mountains

Music in the Mountains SummerFest has been an annual summer classical music festival in Nevada County, California since 1982. The non-profit organization, Music in the Mountains.org (MIM) holds events throughout the year in a variety of style for all ages. The artistic and music director was Hungarian conductor, Gregory Vajda from 2009 until 2016. Concerts take place in Grass Valley and Nevada City.
