The Rastrelli Cello Quartet,  a singularly unique ensemble, has been thrilling audiences with their renderings of non-traditional programming since 2002.  They formed the ensemble with a mission to perform music “between the genres,” and their widely varied programs mix comfortably works by Bach, Saint-Saens  and Tchaikovsky with that of George Gershwin, Dave Brubeck and Leroy Anderson.

FRIDAY, April 20, 2012- "The Long Beach City College Studio Singers".

The Studio Singers were created by Tom Dustman, Professor of Music at Long Beach City College (CA), to perform and record Jazz & Pop-Style vocal arrangements. This select company of highly talented singers are auditioned each semester to form one of the country’s premiere college singing groups. The Studio Singers are made up of musicians from all over the United States as well as many International students (Japan, Dominican Republic, South America, Mexico, Sweden). In addition to their annual Spring Tour, they also perform at the “Holiday Concerts” in December and the “Spring Thing” in May. These very popular concert series are held in the beautiful 1,100 seat auditorium at Long Beach City College, corner of Clark St. and Harvey Way.
