Join us for an evening with Adam Stern, acclaimed conductor. ADAM STERN was appointed Music Director of the Sammamish Symphony in the summer of 2015, after having served for several months as Interim Conductor. He brings more than forty years of conducting experience to the orchestra, as well as his characteristic programming which blends time-honored classics with little-known rarities. Stern also conducts the Seattle Philharmonic, of which he has been Music Director since 2003, and which has presented numerous world, U.S. and West Coast premieres under Stern's direction. The Port Angeles Symphony, which played under Stern's music directorship from 2005 until 2014, also enjoyed years of tradition and innovation as well as a widely-acknowledged and -acclaimed rise in its musical standards.
As music trends evolve, the piano continues to hold a meaningful place in modern music culture. While production tools and digital platforms change how music is created and consumed, the piano remains closely tied to emotional storytelling.
Unlike many household items, a piano is not designed for short-term use. Acoustic pianos, in particular, are built to last decades when properly maintained. This longevity changes how ownership should be approached.
