Kronos is excited to perform a family concert as part of Kronos Festival 2019. The hour-long program features a mix of eclectic and energetic music from across the globe, as well as guest appearances by Appalachian folk singer and storyteller Lee Knight, the San Francisco Girls Chorus artistic director and conductor Valérie Sainte-Agathe, and singers from the SFGC’s Bayview Chorus Program. Great for ages 3 and up.
Come early to hear singers from the San Francisco Girls Chorus School fill the SFJAZZ Center lobby with beautiful music – “Campfire Chants,” a new work by local elementary school teacher and composer Danny Clay.
