The Maestro at the Piano: Music in Film

An exclusive performance and special appearances you won’t want to miss!

Sunriver Music Festival’s Artistic Director & Conductor Brett Mitchell returns to Central Oregon on April 11 for an exclusive solo piano recital featuring his own arrangements for film and cinema.

As a pianist, Steinway Artist Brett Mitchell has a devoted fanbase of his work at the keyboard. The high standard he has set with artistic and professional achievements makes it most appropriate that Mitchell is formally included on the Steinway Artist roster—a list of the most accomplished and discriminating artists in the world. His exceptionally active YouTube channel features his original solo piano videos of iconic cues from film history and landmark works from classical, jazz, and pop canons.

“I couldn’t be more pleased as we gear up for Sunriver Music Festival’s ‘America @ 250’ celebrations in August 2026 to share these iconic selections with our audience in Central Oregon. The art of film scoring was born during the American century, and I can’t imagine a better way to kick off our celebrations than with an intimate evening featuring some of my favorite music of all time. Please join me on April 11 in Sunriver.” ~Brett Mitchell
