Each year, a different music director curates the festival, giving it a distinct identity. Past directors have included groundbreaking artists like John Adams, Dawn Upshaw, Vijay Iyer, and Patricia Kopatchinskaja. This year, the musical director is Claire Chase.
Whether you’re a fan of minimalism, jazz fusion, or modern orchestral works, the Ojai Music Festival offers something refreshingly different – a cultural reset that welcomes curiosity and artistic risk.
