Pasadena Civic Exhibit Hall (Pasadena, CA)
A full orchestra and a gospel choir pay tribute to the Great Emancipator with a joyful salute that’s set to include some of Honest Abe’s favorite tunes, as well as Aaron Copland’s Lincoln Portrait and celebrity readings of the Gettysburg Address and Walt Whitman’s 1865 elegy to the fallen hero, O, Captain! My Captain! Set in a historic Pasadena ballroom, this stirring concert from artistic director Rachael Worby and the artists of MUSE/IQUE honors the 150th anniversary of Lincoln’s death and the 206th anniversary of his birth with old-time classics like “Dixie,” “Beautiful Dreamer” and “The Battle Hymn of the Republic.”
