PEV’s spring concert, called “Music of the Elements: The Bonds We Share,” is led by guest conductor Jeff Howe. This uplifting program celebrates the power of music to activate our senses and our world at the most fundamental level - air, water, fire and earth. We’ll explore new and beloved music by California composers and luminaries like Sanford Dole, Randall Thompson, Stephen Paulus and more.

An accomplished Bay Area conductor and tenor, Jeff was PEV’s assistant music director from 2021-23 and was a featured soloist with the group. He is currently director of music ministry at San Ramon Valley United Methodist Church.

One night only!

PEV’s 2025 gala celebrates love in its many forms. (Because, as the song reminds us: What the world needs now is love, sweet love!) This cabaret-style event features fantastic wines, dinner and an intimate performance that showcases by PEV members and the whole group.

The program includes love songs from Broadway classics (Wicked, Hamilton, Waitress, Rent) to sultry South-of-the-border torch songs to rock/pop classics (Stevie Wonder, Queen, Stevie Nicks) and more!  

The fun includes a silent auction of unique experiences and indulgences. See highlights of the auction offerings here.

THE GALA IS SOLD OUT! THANK YOU! If you still want to support PEV, you can make a donation here.

PEV’s former longtime music director Dr. Lynne Morrow returns to the podium to conduct “Return to the Heart: The Promise of Peace.”

Lynne stepped down as PEV’s music director in 2020, following 15 years in that role. The pandemic lockdown prevented us from presenting what would have been Lynne’s farewell concerts in April 2020. Our holiday concert set this December will celebrate Lynne’s substantial artistic legacy with PEV, including pieces by Leonard Bernstein, Samuel Barber, Dave Brubeck, Meredith Monk - plus African-American spirituals and traditional Afro-Cuban music round out the lively, lovely program.

Join us to welcome Lynne back for this holiday homecoming!

Join us for a springtime afternoon of singing and drumming on the shores of Lake Merritt in Oakland.  PEV will perform selections from our Sound Garden of Love program alongside our friends from SoulBeatz drum circle. This is a free, fun, outdoor presentation for all ages. Bring your kids, your chairs and your dancing shoes!

No reservations necessary. No seating provided - BYO. Rain cancels.

Our spring program is a multicultural celebration of community, music and love for all. Ash’s inspiration for the program comes from William Blake’s famous poem of social and religious protest from 1794, Garden of Love, which you can read in its entirety on our blog here.

The music is wide-ranging, with works from the PEV archive of all eras. The program includes  Elgar’s Lux Aeterna, Monk’s Panda Chant, Dahlgren’s God’s Great Dust Storm, Dylan Tran’s If Music Be the Food of Love - plus our first live performance of Vienna Teng’s astonishing Hymn of Acxiom that we recorded during the lockdown. (Watch that video here.) Dynamic lighting and African-diaspora chants with drumming will have you - and us! - moving and moved. 

We’re excited to welcome special guests Soul Beatz, Oakland’s community drum circle, join us for this program.

This is the only performance of our full program, and space is limited at St. Mark’s, so grab your seats today!

Our December concert will take the audience on a musical voyage along the Black Sea, as we celebrate the music from those countries most impacted by the current Russian invasion. The repertoire will give voice to the works of Ukrainian women artists who have been displaced by the war, including painter Olga Kovtun (see image) and composer Hanna Havrylets, who died in Kiev on the third day of the Russian invasion. Havrylets’ piece “Vse upovanyiye moye” (All My Hope) will be the centerpiece of the program, flanked by other works by Rachmaninov, new music by Sarah Hopkins, Moira Smiley, and traditional folk songs of the season. The concert will also feature Ukrainian bandura player Ola Herasymenko Oliynyk, plus handbells, organ and audience carol singalongs.

In support of the Ukrainians facing a long winter in great need, the members of PEV are encouraging our friends and family to share their generosity with Hearts for Ukraine. This direct-aid humanitarian nonprofit is recommended by the Ukrainian emigres who have been consulting with us on this concert. There will be an opportunity to donate at the concert, or you can do so here.

We had so much fun with this during last year’s pandemic shutdown, we've decided to reprise this year-end event. We’ll be coming to you live, via Zoom, for a real-time, synchronized performance of holiday songs we've been preparing for you - plus a singalong of your favorite carols, all led by our still-new Music Director Ash Walker!

For this event, we'll once again be using JackTrip Virtual Studio, a hardware/software solution developed by the JackTrip Foundation, using technology developed at Stanford University. JackTrip eliminates the delay over the internet that otherwise makes ensemble singing in real time on Zoom impossible. Last year it changed our musical lives!

When we make music in community, we experience joy and a true sense of connection that is so needed right now -- and very much a part of this time of year. We are thrilled to share that experience with you.

Please note: This event is our year-end fundraiser to support PEV’s return to live performances. When you register, you’ll be asked to make a donation of any size -- from as little as $1 to as much as your imagination and love of music will allow. You choose the amount , but our gratitude for your support remains the same!

We can’t wait to see your face on December 20!

Inspired by Leonard Cohen’s work The Great Event, PEV has put together a virtual concert program of hopeful, thoughtful works that will be performed LIVE. The Great Event experience includes the world premiere of a special music video and a post-concert Q&A/reception with the artists.

Cohen’s lyrics for The Great Event provide our blueprint:

 It's going to happen very soon
The great event, which will end the horror
Which will end the sorrow
Next Tuesday when the sun goes down

I will play the Moonlight Sonata backwards
This will reverse the effects of the world's mad plunge
Into suffering, for the last 200 million years

What a lovely night that would be
What a sigh of relief
As the senile robins
Become bright red again
And the retired nightingales
Pick up their dusty tails
And assert the Majesty of Creation

Join us on the vernal equinox for this online presentation of live and recorded works designed to help us all rediscover our equilibrium and bring balance, justice and hope for the future.
