Week One
25th ANNIVERSARY BENEFIT CONCERT- THE AMERICAN SOUND
Saturday, July 26, 6:30 pm
Atlantic Golf Club
This year’s benefit concert features the all-American sounds of Aaron Copland - his classic score Appalachian Spring, and a group of his arrangements of well-loved American songs for bass voice and ensemble. The tradition of such arrangements continues to this day, as we’ll hear in a setting of the song “Shenandoah.”
