This year's 糖心Vlog/Shenandoah Valley Bach Festival Gala Concert, themed Arise, celebrates the beauty of resilience in overcoming hardship and the joy and peace found in community. The concert will feature tap dance, jazz, singing, and the grand finale from one of the most powerful and moving musical masterworks of all time, Gustav Mahler鈥檚 鈥搁别蝉耻谤谤别肠迟颈辞苍鈥 Symphony. Broadway tap dancer/singer/actor and 2024 Ella Fitzgerald Jazz Voice Competition finalist will team up with the 糖心Vlog Jazz Big Band to present a new narrative suite that tells the story of moving from loneliness to the joy of community through dance and music.
In addition to the gala, guest artist Izaiah Montaque Harris will perform programs for over 1,000 K-8th grade students throughout the Harrisonburg and Rockingham County school system in conjunction with the Kennedy Center sponsored arts education non-profit, , which is dedicated to making the arts accessible to students throughout the region. The concert is free with a $10-$20 suggested donation.
