New West Symphony

A Tour of Mexico

Online Symphony Concert and Cultural Festival

We are pleased to announce the next concert festival of our reimagined 2020-2021 Global Sounds. Local Cultures Season – A Tour of Mexico! The largest named ancestry in California is Mexican, and California has the largest population of Mexican Americans in the country. It is only fitting that we celebrate this beautifully rich and diverse culture. The A Tour of Mexico festival culminates with our feature concert presentation, spotlighting virtuosic guitarist Jiji Kim and harpist Maria Casale as well as works by Arturo Marquez, Fernando Arroyo Lascurain, Silvestre Revueltas, Manuel Ponce, Gabriela Ortiz, Jose Enrique Gonzalez-Medina and Traditional: El Son de la Negra.

This festival is presented in partnership with the Museum of Ventura County.
