Stanford Live will once partner with SFJAZZ, the San Francisco Symphony and San Francisco Ballet on a summer concert series at Frost Amphitheater.

The monthlong series, Stanford Live Arts Festival at Frost, will begin on July 7 and include concerts by San Francisco Symphony and performances by San Francisco Ballet, as well as Sérgio Mendes, Andrew Bird with Uwade, Jorge Drexler, and others.

The San Francisco Symphony Friday night programs feature a variety of conductors, soloists and repertoire with Dvořák’s New World Symphony conducted by Joshua Weilerstein and with guest violinist Alexi Kenney, Anna Rakitina conducting Sergei Rachmaninoff’s “Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor” with soloist Denis Kozhukhin, and Edward Elgar’s Enigma Variations; Edwin Outwater conducting “The Golden Age of Cinema” and the music of Leonard Bernstein, Bernard Herrmann, Ennio Morricone and John Williams and others. The symphony’s final performance is a “Movie Night” with the live showing of “Raiders of the Lost Ark” with Constantine Kitsopoulos leading the orchestra in the performance of John Williams’ film score.

SFJAZZ’s programming includes legendary Brazilian bandleader Sérgio Mendes and his group on July 8, singer-songwriter and violinist Andrew Bird with Uwade opening on July 22, and Academy-Award-winning Uruguayan artist Jorge Drexler on July 27.

Stanford Live programming include ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro with Hawaiian musicians Anuhea and John Cruz on July 9, Steve Hackman’s “And I Love Her,” a musical love letter to the women who influenced the Beatles, on July 16, and the National Youth Orchestra of the USA, featuring Bay Area members, on July 26.

On Aug. 3 and 4, the San Francisco Ballet presents its outdoor Frost program “Starry Nights” with performances of “MADCAP,” choreographed by Danielle Rowe, and Igor Stravinsky’s Violin Concerto choreographed by Yuri Possokhov, along with other selections. “MADCAP” dissects the anatomy of a clown to Hagström’s eerie, carnival-inspired score.

Tickets for all performances will be available through Stanford Live online only, starting on April 28 and up until 30 minutes last showtime. Ticket prices start at $25. There will be a presale for Stanford Live members on April 24. Reserved seating is available in the lower bowl section with a general admission section on the lawn. VIP tables are available and include table seating for four people, food and beverage table service, priority entry and a special VIP-only menu of snacks, bites and premium beverages. All four seats must be purchased together.

While there is free parking near the venue, it fills up quickly. Reserved parking is also available in the Eucalyptus Grove and the Galvez Lot for $30. ADA parking is on Roth and Palm Drive, and is free but also limited.
