2026 Four Seasons in Music - “Spring Colors”

In 2026, the acclaimed chamber music series Four Seasons in Music celebrates its eighth season under the inspired direction of Artistic Director Kathryn Lockwood. Set amidst the breathtaking beauty of The Preserve’s historic Hempstead House, Castle Gould, and picturesque waterfront grounds, this distinctive series presents four seasonal concerts. Each performance weaves together music and poetry, inviting audiences to connect deeply and reflect meaningfully throughout the year.

The Preserve’s ensemble-in-residence duoJalal (Kathryn Lockwood and Yousif Sheronick) is joined by a rotating roster of internationally celebrated musicians. Together, they deliver dynamic performances spanning classical masterworks by Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart to works by today’s globally diverse composers. Each concert concludes with a themed reception, inviting guests to mingle with the artists and fellow music lovers in an atmosphere of warmth and community.

This Series is made possible through the generous support of Anne and Vincent Mai.

Spring Colors is a celebration of renewal and discovery. Like the season itself, this concert is filled with fresh energy, blending beloved classics with intriguing newer works. It’s an afternoon of music that feels like sunlight after winter—bright, vibrant, and full of possibility. With a touch of Mozart and Beethoven, the colors of Debussy and Ravel, and the soaring spirit of Dimensions and Ascending Birds, the program comes together in a joyful reminder of What a Wonderful World we live in.
