Sept. 7-30

And an impressive program it is, with back-to-back-to-back performances by Brian Culbertson, Gerald Albright and Brian Simpson with Maysa. That’s just part of the fest, though, which includes two days of concerts at OptiPark and performances at other venues leading up to the outdoor gathering. Details heret.
