Beloved Tenor Daniel Rodriguez was the New York City cop who helped bring the country an uplifting spirit of promise and hope with his stirring rendition of "God Bless America" after the September 11th terrorists attacks.  Daniel has appeared on television's The Late Show with David Letterman, Larry King Live, Live with Regis and Kelly and The Oprah Winfrey Show, among many other high profile events and debuted with Chelsea Opera Company in New York City as "Canio" in Pagliacci. 

One year later, Opera Online honored him with the title "Best Performance by a Leading Male" for his portrayal of "Canio" with Granite State Opera.

Accompanied by piano and bass, Daniel will be joined by his talented wife, soprano Marla Kavanaugh, who won praise from San Francisco critics as "The voice of a sorrowing angel" for her poignant portrayal in The Prince and the Pauper.  Their musical program will tell a beautiful story of how they met and include songs from the US and Marla's native country, New Zealand.

What's an instrumental band with no instruments?  It's not "magic" or "make believe".  It's simply the voices of five guys: Ryan, Earl, Geoff, Danny and Layne -- known better as 42Five.

They've come together to create a new form of entertainment singing songs we all love, from the '60's to the tunes of today, including Journey's "Don't Stop Believing," Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" and Three Dog Night's "Joy to the World."  This award-winning a capella quintet is the entertainment for all ages, for all families and for all size audiences.

From the trumpet to the drums, you'll hear it all from their voices without a glimpse of shiny brass or drumsticks scattered on the floor.

Grand Prize and Gold Medal Winners of the Prestigious Fischoff Chamber Music Competition, the Prima Trio distinguishes itself not only with the remarkable playing, but through the repertoire it performs.

Formed in 2004 while its members were studying at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music in Ohio, this group actually plays four instruments.  Gulia Gurevich (born in Uzbekistan to a distinguished musical family) switches between violin and viola.  Boris Allekhverdyan (B.M. from the Tchaikovsky Moscow Conservatory) plays clarinet and Anastasia Dedik (1st prize winner of the Lee Biennial Piano Competition and the Cliburn Institute/Piano Texas Concerto Competition) is a concert pianist.

Prima Trio's repertoire ranges from beloved chamber music standards to such exotic gems as Armenian composer Aram Khatchaturian's soulful "Trio for Violin, Clarinet and Piano" to S.I. Glick's festive "The Klezmer's Wedding."  "Serenade" by American composer Peter Schickele (aka P.D.Q. Bach) is the grand finale of every concert.

Saluting one of the greatest times in musical history, Masters of Motown is recreating an entire Motor City experience.

The 10-member cast, including three female vocalists, three male vocalists, guitar, bass, drums and keys, has come together to reproduce the style, sound and ultimate feel that Motown brought to us years ago.  They become Stevie Wonder, Four Tops, Diana Ross and the Supremes, and even the Jackson Five.

The show features an entirely live performance, with seasoned musicians and performers catering to every whim of an oldies lover.

Floyd Cramer is one of the most admired instrumentalists of all time.  His signature piano styling is exemplified by the smash hit "Last Date", and can be heard on classic songs by countless music legends, including Patsy Cline, Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley.

Floyd's distinctive sound is still alive and powerful today through the music of his grandson, JASON COLEMAN, who has been playing the piano since he could reach the keys.  After Jason made his Grand Ole Opry debut at age 17, he was given the honor of playing for the Country Music Hall of Fame Medallion Ceremony recognizing his grandfather's induction into the Hall of Fame.

Listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the only family in entertainment history with three generations of #1 hitmakers, the Nelson family is an American Entertainment Dynasty.

His sons, Mathew and Gunnar, had double-platinum success in the early 1990s with three Top 10 singles, four #1 MTV videos, five Top 40 Billboard Hits and they have sold over 6.5 million albums worldwide.
