Laguna Beach Music Festival: Americans

Presented by Philharmonic Society of Orange County

The second evening of the live and in-person Laguna Beach Music Festival explores American hymns, composers, singers, and musicians, beginning with Charles Ives’s nostalgic, haunted Piano Trio and moving on to shape note hymns, tunes from Ives, Woody Guthrie, the Golden Gate Quartet, and more. 

For those who prefer a virtual option, the concert will also be livestreamed and available on-demand for a week after the premiere.
