Door County’s Midsummer’s Music is launching its 29th season with an exhilarating program featuring music by Joaquin Turina, Louise Farrenc, Felix Mendelssohn and Midsummer’s own composer-in-residence, Jacob Beranek.

Wisconsin Public Radio host Norman Gilliland will emcee the Opening Night Gala, and Door County Poet Laureate Nancy Rafal will recite a poem she wrote especially for the occasion. The gala is June 14, 7 pm, in Birch Creek’s Juniper Hall in Egg Harbor. An opening toast of Island Orchard cider and a wonderful, post-concert reception of heavy hors d’oeuvres will round out the program.

Tickets for the Opening Night Gala are $60 per adult and $20 per student. Tickets, subscriptions and flex-packs can be ordered online at midsummersmusic.com or by phone at 920.854.7088.
