If you missed Musica Angelica’s first free community concert in October, you’ll want to make sure you mark your calendars for the other three this season, all held in Long Beach Public Libraries.
Each concert in the series features a performance from a soloist or small ensemble from Musica Angelica playing period baroque music with historically accurate instruments. The musicians also share information about the music, its composers, instruments and the context of the Baroque period. All ages are welcome.
The free concerts are just one part of the many outreach and educational activities Musica Angelica coordinates, including music education with the Long Beach Unified School District throughout the city. The community concerts are made possible in part through funding from the Port of Long Beach. All performances start at noon.
