The Festival Orchestra

The Grand Teton Music Festival welcomes top talent from world-renowned symphonies to our Summer Festival each year. Under the baton of Music Director Donald Runnicles these musicians come together to gather inspiration from the mountain setting, renew their artistic vows to music making, and to provide exhilarating music for Festival patrons.
