MIAMI, FL - This summer, June 7 through August 16,
in a quiet Miami neighborhood within the historic Coral Gables Congregational
United Church of Christ’s intimate, Spanish-revival style setting, concertgoers
will have the unique opportunity to be awed and entertained by some of the
music industry’s most talented and revered classical and jazz figures. These
artists will perform and delight audiences at the Community Arts Program (CAP)
2018 Summer Concert Series. A Summertime full of cultural and educational
easy livin'!
The Community Arts Program Summer Concert Series has entertained more than 67,000 people since it began in 1985. The Series has grown into a time-honored tradition and, more recently, part of a Community Arts Program that provides music education to children in its Conservatory for the Arts. “The Community Arts Program (CAP) Summer Concert Series is a rare opportunity to hear world-renowned artists in the intimate and beautiful Coral Gables Congregational United Church of Christ,” says Shelton G. Berg, University of Miami Dean of the Phillip and Patricia Frost School of Music. “The CAP Conservatory for the Arts provides high-quality music education to children, many of whom would otherwise be denied access to the wonder of music and the beauty of the artistic spirit.”
“We are very excited to again present an attractive line up of artists,” says Mark Hart, Executive & Artistic Director of the Community Arts Program. “It’s an honor to welcome concertgoers locally, from across the state, and as far away as Europe; and rewarding to see the growth of our music education program for kids! In all, we’ve come to provide exceptional cultural- and educationally-enriching experiences for more than 3,000 children and adults each year!”
