The WolfganG Strikes Again! Wednesday, October 28th @ 7PM at SandBox, Sand City
The "WolfganG" is a group of friends connected by their passion for chamber music and their love for the music of Mozart. Anchored by Mozart's uplifting C Major Viola Quintet, K. 515 our program also presents the music of 3 American composers whose works undoubtedly influenced by Mozart possess beauty, humor and musical inventiveness.

Don't miss this opportunity to encounter the extraordinary cast of the "WolfganG" in the intimacy and great acoustics of SandBox. You won't miss a breath, a cue, a smile or goosebumps from either the musicians or the audience. In SandBox, your presence is part of the collaboration.

18/under - free admission

This 2025 Telluride Blue Grass Competition prize winning crew will be sharing their incredible gifts with you Sand Box Sand City on Friday, July 17th at 7 PM.
Rachel Sumner has performed at the Library of Congress, where five of her original songs are now archived, and was a 2024 winner of the Kerrville New Folk competition. Her song “Radium Girls (Curie Eleison)” struck a nerve—streamed over 300,000 times and picked up by dancers, theater directors, and deep listeners who saw themselves in its story. It’s been tattooed on arms, sung in audition rooms, and carried into classrooms and protests. The kind of song people hold onto.

Their coast to coast tour has them making a stop right here at SandBox.
