In the mood for some gritty blues, folk and rock ‘n roll… with a touch of Philly soul?
The sizzling Bacon Brothers – Hollywood star Kevin and his brother Michael – will bring their “feel good” music to Carmel’s Sunset Center on Sept. 29 at 8 pm, with an opening act to be announced.
Why not combine this concert with a Carmel getaway? September and October are the best months of the year. Check out one of our luxurious Carmel vacation rentals:
This gated 4 bedroom/3 bath sanctuary in the treetops overlooking Pescadero Canyon and Pebble Beach is just minutes walking distance to downtown Carmel. Located on over a quarter acre, it has a swimming pool (and extensive decks and patios for pre or post-concert lounging).
“Point Taken,” a modernized, yet classic Carmel cottage, sleeps six comfortably with two bedrooms in the main house plus a separate master “casita” with a king bed and bath.
Feeling “footloose?” This stylish home is a short walk to the powder white sands of Carmel Beach.
Put some sparks in your relationship with a romantic bonfire on the beach!
Here’s how it works: you casually stroll down Carmel Beach at a pre-appointed time and voila!: surprise someone special with a pre-lit, blazing bonfire in the sand.
Romantic Room Designs also supplies the beach blanket, extra wood, roasting sticks, and all the fixin’s for s’mores: marshmallows, Hershey bars and graham crackers.
You can even have a message written in rose petals on the sand http://st..emale-cialis/. Prices start at $139 with various options and upgrades for different occasions. (They’ll do everything but propose for you.)
Relax in this Bubbling Beauty
And what could be better than soaking in a bubbling hot tub after that bonfire? Listen to the sounds of the surf while relaxing in the tub in this secluded courtyard – or check out the stars from the huge roof top deck.
With breathtaking views of Carmel Bay and the Pebble Beach Golf Course, this four bedroom 2200 sq. ft. retreat is just a short walk from the beach and the heart of downtown Carmel.
You probably don’t expect to hear compositions by John Coltrane and Dizzy Gillespie at a Bach music festival. But then again, this isn’t just any music festival – this is the Bach Festival in Carmel.
Carmel. A town founded by artists, poets, and writers who preferred to name their houses rather than give them numerical addresses (a tradition that continues today, much to the consternation of FedEx).
A town that allows dogs almost everywhere, but prohibits high heels without a permit. And a town that every summer celebrates the power of music with performances that run the gamut from “pastoral to exuberant, classical to jazz, and traditional to avant-garde.”
From intimate Bach sonatas at the Church in the Forest, to the festive opening night gala at the Sunset Center, this year’s schedule includes full orchestral and choral works, individual vocal and chamber ensemble concerts, recitals, master classes, films, lectures, informal talks, social and family events.
The Carmel Bach Festival runs from July 16-30 at venues around the Peninsula. Tickets are available now, and some events are free.
A “Note” Worthy Vacation Rental
Indulge yourself – and your interest in the arts – in one of our many Carmel vacation rentals. Like this 1,600 square foot beauty nestled in a pine forest, just blocks from downtown.
With an enchanted backyard garden, two private decks, three bedrooms and three baths, it sleeps six (plus your dog) comfortably.
See the stars – onstage and off – at the Forest Theater in the heart of Carmel. The oldest outdoor community theater west of the Rockies, this 500 seat natural amphitheater is surrounded by cypress and Monterey pines.
The original stage was built on a slope between two great pines that form the 60′ wide proscenium arch. In those days there wasn’t a curtain, and there were no electric lights. Bonfires lit the roads and paths to the theater. Then, as now, two stone fireplaces on either side of the stage are kindled before each performance, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.
This season, the magic happens with two musicals: “Peter & the Wolf,” weekends through June 19, and “Once Upon a Mattress,” July 1-31. There’s also a summer line up of “Films in the Forest.”
The Argonaut Cottage, one of our most popular Carmel rentals, is a short walk from the outdoor theater and all the attractions of downtown Carmel. See a play or watch a movie under the stars… and then head back to this cozy cottage for a cup of hot cocoa by the fireplace.
