Caplet): The Box of Toys (La boîte à joujoux) RAVEL: The Child and the Magical Spells: a lyric fantasy in two scenes (L'enfant et les sortilèges: Fantaisie lyrique en deux parties) A glorious and theatrical celebration of the light and enchantment of France and French music, beginning with Debussy’s evocation of a journey to a mysterious island of love, and his witty and charming ballet score for children about the adventures of a box of toys. The program ends with a brilliantly colorful and delightful semi-staging of Ravel’s immortal and much-loved comic fantasy about a naughty child whose toys come to life to punish him. In this performance, specially created for San Diego, the many characters portrayed by the singers in this story will be reflected in animated illustrations projected on to the beautiful new walls of Jacobs Music Center. Music, words and images work in harmony to tell the story. This year marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of Ravel, and our production of "L’enfant et les sortilèges" is this orchestra’s homage to the man who created one of the most beautiful depictions of childhood in all of music.

“The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” Join us for a weekly gathering rooted in stillness, compassion, and creative expression. Each session begins with a gentle metta (loving-kindness) meditation, guiding us inward to cultivate peace, for ourselves and for the heavy world around us. From that grounded place, we’ll move into a writing prompt designed to open the heart, quiet the mind, and give voice to what longs to be written. This is a space for writers of all levels, meditators and non-meditators alike. Come as you are. Write what arises. Share if you wish. Proceeds from this weekly class will go to vulnerable local families being targeted by ICE. The TIAS, Take Inspired Action Siempre, extend care and support to the vulnerable and at-risk in Solana Beach and Encinitas during this assault on our immigrant communities. The TIAS mission is to build stronger, safer, and more inclusive communities by providing those in need with what they need, when they need it. Let’s gather in the spirit of peace.
