A musical celebration under the stars, in the beautiful courtyard of the library.

Born in Cuba and raised in Venezuela, Dr. ALFREDO ROLANDO ORTIZ supported his medical studies in Medellín, Colombia performing on the Paraguayan harp. He moved to the United States to continue studies of Music Therapy, and for eight years from the time of his graduation from medical school, he worked in both the medical field and as a harpist and recording artist. He then decided to focus on his first love - the harp. With a multi-cultural repertoire that covers folk, classical, and popular music from many countries, as well as his original compositions, Alfredo has performed worldwide for audiences of all ages and backgrounds. A recent winner of the Beverly Hills Auditions, Alfredo will perform on the "Previews" series in Manhattan Beach and on the "Music In The Mansion" series in Beverly Hills in June 2010.

After winning the Inland Empire Theater League "Excellence in Theater Arts Award" for her role as Maria in the San Bernardino Valley College production of West Side Story, LUZMA moved to New York, where she graduated from AMDA (American Musical and Dramatic Academy). She toured for three years in musical theater productions, including two years with "Dora the Explorer Live," performing throughout Canada and the USA. Luzma is flying in from New York for this performance.

Like her sister, MICHELLE is also an accomplished vocalist. She has been a featured soloist in various choirs from junior high school through college. Michelle first discovered vocal jazz while studying at Riverside City College. She then transferred to Mt. San Antonio College and became a member of the award winning Jazz group, Singcopation, thrice honored with the title "Best Collegiate Vocal Jazz Group in the Country" by Downbeat Magazine. Michelle and her husband, composer, arranger, violinist, and vocalist TYLER EMERSON, frequently perform with their own Jazz group.

A musical celebration under the stars, in the beautiful courtyard of the library.

Born in Cuba and raised in Venezuela, Dr. ALFREDO ROLANDO ORTIZ supported his medical studies in Medellín, Colombia performing on the Paraguayan harp. He moved to the United States to continue studies of Music Therapy, and for eight years from the time of his graduation from medical school, he worked in both the medical field and as a harpist and recording artist. He then decided to focus on his first love - the harp. With a multi-cultural repertoire that covers folk, classical, and popular music from many countries, as well as his original compositions, Alfredo has performed worldwide for audiences of all ages and backgrounds. A recent winner of the Beverly Hills Auditions, Alfredo will perform on the "Previews" series in Manhattan Beach and on the "Music In The Mansion" series in Beverly Hills in June 2010. Read about Alfredo Rolando Ortiz, watch, and listen, by clicking:

After winning the Inland Empire Theater League "Excellence in Theater Arts Award" for her role as Maria in the San Bernardino Valley College production of West Side Story, LUZMA moved to New York, where she graduated from AMDA (American Musical and Dramatic Academy). She toured for three years in musical theater productions, including two years with "Dora the Explorer Live," performing throughout Canada and the USA. Luzma is flying in from New York for this performance.

Like her sister, MICHELLE is also an accomplished vocalist. She has been a featured soloist in various choirs from junior high school through college. Michelle first discovered vocal jazz while studying at Riverside City College. She then transferred to Mt. San Antonio College and became a member of the award winning Jazz group, Singcopation, thrice honored with the title "Best Collegiate Vocal Jazz Group in the Country" by Downbeat Magazine. Michelle and her husband, composer, arranger, violinist, and vocalist TYLER EMERSON, frequently perform with their own Jazz group.
