SF Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band Community Concert: Notes from the Peace Corps
SEE EVENT DETAILS
A Celebration of Global Music Honoring the Peace Corps!
In a time of global conflict, the quest for peace in 2022 is stronger than ever. That is one of the primary motivations behind a first-ever partnership between the San Francisco Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band and the Northern California Peace Corps Association. This collaboration will take the form of a concert called "Notes from the Peace Corps" and will highlight the Peace Corps mission and experience, and regions of the world where they have made a difference.
Date: Saturday, March 19
Time: 3pm PDT
Place: Knuth Music Hall, in the Creative Arts Building at San Francisco State University
Tickets: Reserve your FREE tickets at https://www.norcalpca.org/events/notes-from-the-peace-corps
To honor the mission of the Peace Corps, the "Official Band of San Francisco" will be led by Artistic Director Pete Nowlen. The program includes music that speaks to the values of the Peace Corps and the work of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers as well as music by composers from countries where the Peace Corps has served.
Featured musical selections include:

Lesotho Variations by, Carr
Persian Dance No. 2, by Molookpour
Danza Final (Malambo), by Ginastera
