Peninsula Symphony mourns the loss of Michael Tilson Thomas, a towering figure in classical music and a defining artistic voice in the Bay Area. Through his visionary leadership of the San Francisco Symphony, he shaped generations of musicians and audiences alike. His legacy will continue to inspire our community for years to come.

It is with deep sadness that we let you know of Michael Tilson Thomas’s passing on April 22, 2026. In 2021, Michael was diagnosed with Glioblastoma Multiforme, an aggressive type of brain cancer. Through his illness he continued to make music—a testament to his legacy as an artist and communicator. He was preceded in death by his husband Joshua Robison, and passed away at home surrounded by loved ones and family. Joshua and Michael are survived by their sisters, nieces and nephews. 💙
