Join the fun and celebrate ARCA’s 20th Anniversary at the Gala Pops Concert “Birthday Party” performed by mezzo-soprano Katherine (Kathy) Soroka who sang the first concert in Lincoln Hall in 2006 – with virtuoso pianist and ARCA favorite Nathan Carterette, celebrated violinist Maureen Conlon Gutiérrez and acclaimed tenor Robert Frankenberry in his return to Lincoln Hall.

Enjoy a champagne toast at the intermission – and the reception at the Red Brick Gallery following the concert for the opening of the exhibit of Rafi and Klee.

The Pops Concert program will include an eclectic mix of genres of music that ARCA audiences have enjoyed over the years – “Something for Everyone” – from virtuosic classical piano, violin chamber music & tangos to spirituals, folk songs, art song, opera, jazz standards and musical theatre.  The repertoire will include works by Chopin, Medtner, Dvorak and Bach –  Tchaikovsky and tangos by Piazzola, and vocal solos and duets by Mahler, Gounod, Poulenc, Ravel, plus a Sondheim medley.
