Join us IN-PERSON for the 2021 Laguna Beach Music Festival opening night, led by pianist-composer Conrad Tao in his artistic director debut and featuring dancer/choreographer Caleb Teicher in a dazzling display of movement and music. Debuted virtually by the Library of Congress in Fall 2020, this performance marks the in-person premiere of this program featuring works by Bach, Brahms, Gershwin, Ravel, Conrad Tao, and others.
For those who prefer a virtual option, the concert will also be livestreamed and available on-demand for a week after the premiere.
