MUSIC AND MINDS.ORG

Music and Minds presents internationally acclaimed artists and speakers across a wide spectrum of genres in the intimate setting of a salon. Set in West Marin, audiences from as far as Sacramento, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and the East Bay come to hear these world-class musicians, Grammy Artists, and Steinway Artists among them.

Founded in 2017, Music and Minds is a West Marin–based salon that brings together world-renowned artists, thinkers, and audiences for unforgettable evenings of music, conversation, and community. Set amid the serene beauty of West Marin, each gathering offers an intimate encounter with artistry that transcends genre—spanning jazz, classical, contemporary fusion, and the cutting edge of multidisciplinary performance.

At its heart, Music and Minds was born from a simple idea: that gathering around live art can restore connection and wonder in an ever-accelerating world. What began as a monthly meeting among friends has grown into a celebrated series featuring Grammy-winning musicians, Steinway Artists, international ambassadors, and innovators at the intersection of technology and the arts.

Our concerts often blur boundaries between performance and exploration—hosting premieres, collaborations across disciplines, and conversations about the creative process. From a Rachmaninoff concerto infused with brain–computer interface visuals, to intimate recitals by celebrated jazz and classical luminaries, Music and Minds curates experiences that are at once deeply personal and globally resonant.

Each event is an invitation—to listen closely, to think expansively, and to share in the creative energy that connects us all.
