Laguna Beach Live Presents Firebird at the Laguna Art Museum tonight, Thursday May 14 2015 at 7:00pm.
The Laguna Art Museum is located at 307 Cliff Drive.
This is a free event with museum admission.
Firebird is music from the heart of Ukraine and Russia performed by a unique ensemble.
Founded in 1995, Firebird is building a reputation as a unique, dynamic, and accomplished group of musicians performing on Russian traditional instruments.
These include:
The Domra: A string instrument with a thin fretted neck and round body first appearing in written records at the end of the 15th century.
The Balalaika: A triangular-bodied Russian instrument well known to Western audiences from the film Doctor Zhivago.
The Bayan: A member of the accordion family popular in Russia and Ukraine.
Firebird’s repertoire ranges from traditional Russian and Eastern European songs to well-known classics and works of contemporary composers.
Live! at the Museum is an ongoing series of early-evening concerts in the museum’s galleries.
This is a feast of sight and sound.
In presenting the series, Laguna Art Museum has partnered with Laguna Beach Live!
Laguna Beach Live is an organization cherished by music lovers for its work in bringing performances by top-level, professional musicians to the Laguna Beach community.
Not only are the galleries an appropriately beautiful setting in which to experience great music, they also boast fine acoustics.
The concerts take place the second Thursday of each month from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.
