The all-new concert event will take the audience on a thrilling musical journey across the Western Hemisphere. With lively beats from the Caribbean, choruses from Indigenous American cultures and the soulful melodies of North and South America, the concert promises to captivate and inspire with songs in a wide variety of styles and five different languages including English, Spanish, and Portuguese, as well as Native American and Afro-Brazilian languages. Rhythms expressed through dance, handclaps and drumming, together with vibrant harmonies and visuals, will evoke emotions to make spirits soar.

The electrifying 180-voice Angel City Chorale along with the ACC Music Ensemble will excite viewers with fresh, new arrangements of familiar titles like Duke Ellington’s It Don’t Mean a Thing if it Ain’t Got that Swing and Bob Marley’s Three Little Birds and will have people on their feet with the lively rendition of Diane White-Clayton’s Clap Praise.

The Angel City Youth Chorale (ACYC) Concert Choir will also be featured in the Rhythms of the Americas concert. Beyond their rehearsals on the weekends, ACYC partners with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Venice and Santa Monica (Mar Vista Gardens Branch) along with Grant Elementary School, Walgrove Elementary School, and Mosk Elementary School to provide after-school choral programs. ACYC overall now serves more than 90 students throughout Los Angeles.
