American 20-Something: A Nation Finding Its Voice
May 30, 2026 1:00 PM
The 1920s was a time of invention, upheaval, and joy, and so too is this concert: a time to hear America finding and reinventing its voice.
Join us to welcome guest conductor James Welsch to the podium, our last finalist to become the next Music Director of Kirkland Civic Orchestra--and your feedback will help write the next chapter in the KCO story!
