Confirm the room because the campus also has the separate Spieker Center and Martin Family Hall, then check the event's seating, admission terms, campus directions, parking, accessibility, and start time.

To celebrate its tenth anniversary in 2012, Music@Menlo reversed its music-centric model to focus on the listener, exploring the enduring question of why organized sound can have such a powerful effect. Concert Program V reflects this approach through a varied selection of emotionally arresting works, including Josef Suk’s Meditation on an Old Czech Hymn , David Serkin Ludwig’s Three Yiddish Dances and Tchaikovsky’s Souvenir de Florence . Listen to the AudioNote, our preconcert listener guide for this Concert Program. https://musicatmenlo.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/26-CP5-Resonance.mp3 Can’t make the concert/concert sold out?
