AlpinHong:Chasing Chopin — Friday, Sept. 26 A favorite guest of the North State Symphony, and called "a pianistic firebrand" by the New York Times, Alpin Hong embodies a rare blend among contemporary clas- sical musicians: an explo- sive, dynamic piano tech- nique sprinkled with en- tertaining interaction with his audience. This show brings these talents together in a personal nar- rative of his journey. All along he punctuates each chapter with Chopin's in- comparable piano music. Listeners experience a res- onance as they take in the emotions that drive Hong's personal and gripping in- terpretations of these mas- terpieces.

The Young Irelanders — Monday, March 27, 2017 The Young Irelanders features eight perform- ers who have Irish tradi- tional music, song, and dance running through their veins. Although still in their 20s and 30s, these artists have achieved more than most people would aspire to in a lifetime. They have toured as lead performers with River- dance and Michael Flat- ley's Lord of the Dance, and been chosen by Sting to perform for his exclu- sive private parties. Everything Fitz — Friday, Apr. 28, 2017 Returning to Red Bluff is the Tehama Concert Se- ries' second highest rated show ever.

This is a must for our Tehama County fid- dlers to put on their cal- endars. The Tehama Concert Se- ries is operated by volun- teers.
