Please join us for our upcoming "Dream On" season finale concert, taking place at 7pm on Tuesday, April 30th in the Hibben Gallery at The San Diego Museum of Art. This is the last installment in our "In Your Dreams" season, which explores, through music, the quirky world of the subconscious. From Tan Dun's haunting "Ghost Opera" and David Bruce's spirited work "Steampunk" to an exploration of the traditional and contemporary sounds of India, this colorful season has taken listeners on a musical journey through all of the unpredictable, terrifying, sensuous and whimsical things that happen in your dreams.

Read on to learn what to expect and discover how you can be a part of the Art of Élan experience. And mark your calendars for our May 29th performance at the Malcolm X Library in Emerald Hills. It's a FREE concert!

We look forward to seeing you soon!

In the final dream before waking from Art of Élan's 6th season, audience and performers alike will journey from the baroque mastery of Telemann to David Bruce's spirited "Steampunk," experiencing a montage of musical ideas and traditions that culminates with a world premiere work by young New York composer LJOVA, commissioned by Art of Élan for this season finale concert.
