MOZART Symphony No. 39 in E-flat Major
The third Classical Concert opens with a deeply moving, multimedia work about Einstein’s inner world and relationships, written by Kevin Puts and featuring the return of bass-baritone Timothy Jones. Einstein was a string player himself, so we’re thrilled to present Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 with nine soloists from the Festival Orchestra. Einstein had no greater admiration or love for an artist than he did for Mozart, so the program closes with Mozart’s Symphony No. 39, one of the final three symphonies he ever composed.

Perseid Meteor Shower Peak (2026)
2026-08-12 00:00 - 2026-08-13 05:00 | Sunriver, Oregon, Sunriver, OR, 97707, United States
Stargazers couldn’t ask for better conditions for the 2026 Perseid meteor shower! This astronomical event is known for fast, bright meteors that stream through the night sky as Earth moves directly through debris left by the Swift–Tuttle comet. The peak of activity from August 12-13 coincides with a new moon this year, so lunar light won’t interfere with the show as it did last year. From a remote area with dark skies (like Sunriver, a designated Dark Sky Place), these settings could deliver up to around 90 meteors per hour.
Perseid Meteor Shower Details
Peak Activity from Aug. 12-13, 2026 | Most active from 12 a.m. – 5 a.m.
The Perseids remain active well beyond mid-August. The entire meteor shower runs from July 14 to September 1 in 2026; you could see meteors soaring any night during this period. Keep watch for exceptionally brilliant meteors, known as fireballs. If you want the best view, you’ll have to stay up late. The Perseid meteor shower is most visible from midnight to dawn.
Lodging with a View
Come to Sunriver, a designated International Dark Sky Place, for great viewing of this natural wonder (especially from a relaxing hot tub with a view!)

Viewing Tips for the Geminids Meteor Shower
The Geminids are best viewed during the night and predawn hours and are visible across the globe due to a nearly 24-hour broad maximum. This show is considered one of the best opportunities for young viewers since it starts around 9 or 10 p.m. To view the Geminids, find an area well away from the city lights or street lights. Sunriver is within an International Dark Sky Place area, so it’s the perfect location to view!
Come prepared for winter temperatures with a sleeping bag, blanket, or lawn chair. Lie flat on your back with your feet facing south and look up, taking in as much of the sky as possible. After about 30 minutes in the dark, your eyes will adapt, and you will begin to see meteors. Be patient – the show will last until dawn, so you have plenty of time to catch a glimpse.
