Long Beach City College Auditorium (Long Beach, CA)
Patriotic feeling, music from a live bluegrass band and — of course — the 80 voices of the Long Beach Camerata Singers are all woven together to form American Tapestry, the chorus’ star-spangled tribute to America’s singing heritage. A perfect antidote to election season cynicism, American Tapestry features beautiful new arrangements of familiar folk songs in addition to American standards, rousing spirituals and a heartfelt salute to those in the armed forces. Let selections like “Shenandoah,” “Beautiful River,” “Wondrous Love,” “Simple Gifts,” Copland’s “Stomp Your Foot Upon the Floor,” and Dr. Rob Istad’s own arrangement of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (which recently celebrated its 200th birthday) lift your spirits and warm your heart during this concert at Long Beach City College Auditorium.
