MindTravel Live-to-Headphones: Sunset Piano Concert in Bakersfield

A mindful, immersive music experience by composer & pianist Murray Hidary

Settle into the grass and slip on wireless headphones as the sun sets over the Park at River Walk. MindTravel’s live-to-headphones “silent” piano journey blends soothing, improvisational music with the rhythm of nature —guiding you into presence, clarity, and deep relaxation.

When: Saturday, May 9, 2026• 7:00PM PT (arrive 20–30 minutes early for check-in)
Where: 11298 Stockdale Hwy, Bakersfield, CA 93311 (on the grass near the amphitheater)
Tickets: Limited headphones—reserve in advance



What you’ll experience
  • Live piano at sunset, delivered privately through premium wireless headphones
  • A mindfulness-infused concert that quiets the noise and invites reflection
  • A shared, screen-free, wellness-focused evening on the grass

Who it’s for

Music lovers, wellness seekers, meditators (new and seasoned), date-night adventurers, and anyone looking for calm, inspiration, and connection in Bakersfield.



What to bring

A beach chair, blanket, or towel (seating not provided); light layer for after sunset; water; and an open mind.



Good to know
  • Rain or shine. In the case of light rain, the experience continues; for severe weather, updates will be emailed to ticket holders. Be sure to have access to the email you used to purchase tickets on the day of the event.
  • Check-in early. Headphones are limited and distributed at arrival.
  • Family-friendly; participants should be comfortable sitting quietly for the duration.

What People Are Saying

"MindTravel is an experience like no other. Imagine a concert pianist improvising beautiful, peaceful music with imagery in the background that matches the beauty of the music — combined, it is almost meditative or trancelike." - Jason Wachob, Founder of mindbodygreen

"MindTravel is an amazing introduction to meditation as it takes the Traveler on a specific journey. It is also perfect for the experienced meditator as a way to enhance and deepen one’s own practice. In short, Mind Travel is for anyone!” - Sara Ivanhoe, MA Yoga Philosophy
