Tales from the Forgotten Kingdom is a sonic adventure master- fully brought to life by the Guy Mendilow Ensemble, an award-winning quin- tet of world-class musi- cians with members hail- ing from Israel, Palestine, Argentina, Japan, the UK and the USA. Guy Mendilow has appeared nationally on the Curious George "PBS Kids" platform, teaching children music principals. This ensemble of interna- tionally savvy world musi- cians delivers a highly tex- tured global experience of haunting beauty. Mr. Men- dilow will also be doing a school outreach in Tehama County. Ken Lavigne, tenor "The Road to Carnegie Hall" — Nov. 24 Ken Lavigne, an origi- nal member of the Cana- dian Tenors, has charmed his way into the hearts of concert goers across North America with his excit- ing blend of classical tenor sound and modern style. Joined by a four-piece en- semble, Lavigne takes his audience on a riveting jour- ney, retelling his personal campaign to sing at Carne- gie Hall with the New York Pops. Told with spectacular songs and entertaining and hilarious stories, Lavigne embodies the spirit of the underdog — audacity, te- nacity, and ultimately…tri- umph. New York critics said his voice was "liquid gold." North State Symphony Holiday Concert — Dec. 18 The North State Sym- phony's Baroque Ensem- ble, a portion of the full symphony, performs spe- cial Christmas music each year at the State Theatre in Red Bluff. Come prepared to hear great music, and to sing carols accompanied by the Ensemble. Acoustic Guitar Masters — Jan 15, 2016 The guitar is one of the most versatile instruments, drawing listeners across musical genres. Acoustic Guitar Masters brings three experts from the worlds of classical, jazz and fin- ger style guitar to perform music from Miles Davis to Villa-Lobos to Americana ballads. Come enjoy this rare combination of three masters of the instrument. Barefoot Movement — Mar. 11, 2016 This charming four- piece acoustic band takes listeners back to a simpler place and time. The Bare- foot Movement draws from styles of bluegrass, folk, acoustic rock and Ameri- cana. With original songs, impressive instrumentation and interweaving harmo- nies, this band converges old and new into a style all its own. Local fiddlers won't want to miss this opportu- nity to hear a bit of their genre as well. Axiom Brass — May 21, 2016 Axiom Brass' broadly ap- pealing repertoire includes traditional brass quin- tets, string quartet tran- scriptions, early music and unique arrangements of American and Latin jazz. The ensemble's commit- ment to new music has led to several world premieres and ongoing commission- ing projects. This Chi- cago-based quintet is ded- icated to enriching musi- cians and appreciators of great brass sounds. Their full, rich, blended harmo- nies and rhythms are not to be missed.
