Resonance

Resonance is a convergence of Santa Barbara artists to uplift, unite and inspire our spirits. Musicians, singers and speakers reflecting our diverse cultures will offer songs, music and spoken words that resonate with the times in which we live. Created to infuse our community with peace, togetherness and harmony, over 30 participants will contribute to this unique and transformative offering, direct from the Marjorie Luke stage.
For Resonance musical artists were asked to perform a work that resonated with them and infuse our community with peace, togetherness and harmony. Over 30 artists and community members participated in the three days of videotaping on the Marjorie Luke stage to create this concert. The Virtual Concert Series will feature six major events, with more being added through Spring of 2021. Each concert is professionally videotaped on the stage of the historic Luke Theatre, and once edited, will be available free online on this page indefinitely. Musicians in Resonance will perform established and original compositions created specifically for this unique event. artists include classical guitarist Chris Fossek, composer Cody Westheimer playing the shakuhachi, Alice Bradley on banjo, Charlotte Choi on cello, Gil Rosas and Jay Real on piano. Adam Phillips performs vocals, guitar and Chinese flute and is joined by Laurie Rasmussen on Celtic harp and Nicole McKenzie on violin from the Santa Barbara Folk Orchestra, and Miguelito Leon & Friends share a traditional Afro Cuban percussion and vocal work.
