A $150 early bird season pass to attend all 17 Endless Mountain Music Festival concerts is available now through Tuesday, Dec. 31.

“The early bird season pass is an opportunity to give a music lover a great gift for Christmas, a birthday, anniversary or just because,” said Cindy Long, EMMF executive director. 

The 2025 Endless Mountain Music Festival will feature a  treasure trove of music ranging from jazz to Celtic, blues to brass, pops to classical works. 

World-class, award-winning musicians will present the 17 concerts Friday, July 18 through Sunday, Aug. 3, 2025 at venues in Pennsylvania and New York. Fourteen of them will be at 7 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays, one will be on a Sunday at 8 p.m. and two on Sunday afternoons at 2:30 p.m. 

Eight are symphony orchestra concerts with two of them free and six for $39 per person or $234 and nine are chamber concerts with two of them free and seven for $30 per person or $210 for a total of $444.

By comparison, for $150, the early bird season pass price to attend the 17 concerts, including the four free concerts and the 13 pay concerts is $11.54, a saving of $294 or 66 percent.

On Jan. 1, 2025, the price of a season pass will return to $250 or $19.23 per pay concert.

Long recently presented a platinum appreciation award to C&N for being an EMMF sponsor for all 19 years the festival has been held.  

On Friday, July 18, 2025 at Commonwealth University in Mansfield, C&N is sponsoring the first concert of the Endless Mountain Music Festival’s 20th summer season. It promises to be an exciting event featuring the EMMF Symphony Orchestra performing Oscar Navarro’s “Libertadores”,  the Pennsylvania premiere of “Nocturne for Piano and Orchestra” composed by Jimmy Webb who also wrote “MacArthur Park” and, with Jeffrey Biegel at the piano, Dvořák’s “Golden Spinning Wheel, Op. 109, B 197” composed in 1896.

At the 2024 festival, Biegel performed the Pennsylvania premiere of Peter Boyer’s “Rhapsody in Red, White & Blue” in celebration of 100 years of George Gershwin’s 1924 iconic musical composition “Rhapsody in Blue.”

For the “Rhapsody in Blue” centennial in 2024, Biegel created the Rhapsody National Initiative project and commissioned the new work for Boyer to compose for piano and orchestra. 

Biegel is a pianist, composer, and professor at Brooklyn College. He has created more than two-dozen commissioning projects with living composers in America and abroad.

The other EMMF Symphony Orchestra concerts will be on Fridays, July 25 and Aug. 1, 2025 in Steadman Theater at Commonwealth University in Mansfield, Pa. and on Saturdays, July 19, July 26 and Aug. 2, 2025 at the Corning Museum of Glass Auditorium in Corning, N.Y.

Free Pops concerts with the EMMF Symphony Orchestra will be on Sunday, July 20 at 2:30 p.m. at the auditorium in the Wellsboro Area School District Administration building in Wellsboro and on Sunday, Aug. 3 at 2:30 p.m. at the Corning Museum of Glass Auditorium in Corning, N.Y.
