About The Sitka Music Festival
The Sitka Music Festival was founded in 1972 by violinist Paul Rosenthal, a then aspiring artist just completing instruction at the University of Southern California with master violinist Jascha Heifetz. Mr. Rosenthal, a native New Yorker, began playing violin at three. He studied with Dorothy DeLay at The Juilliard School, Ivan Galamian and Josef Gingold prior to coaching with Heifetz.

In 2011, Paul Rosenthal retired from the Festival. In his four decades as Artistic Director, Paul helped to nurture deep roots across the state: an enthusiastic audience, authentic friendships, and dedicated contributors. Paul carefully chose cellist Zuill Bailey as his successor to continue his tradition of consistently bringing the highest caliber of classical music to Alaska.
