We dedicate dedicate Oregon Festival of American Music 2026 (both Winter and Summer) to an exploration and celebration of the extraordinary body of non-Songbook songs and music from throughout the world and byways of America which have made their way into the American popular music and jazz canons…and vice versa. Summer, entitled Beyond The Sea, will explore these musical crosscurrents and convergences broadly. Winter, I Love Paris, focuses on the extraordinarily rich intersection of France & the United States. [details]

Paris has always been more than a city. It is a stage, a character, a muse. In Mise-en-Scène: Paris in Song, Siri Vik and company explore the French chanson as both an art form and a way of seeing life — the staging of love, heartbreak, and joy against the backdrop of Parisian cafés, boulevards, and dance halls..
