7:00 PM - Festival Opening Night
The Festival's Opening Night will be a great celebration of our 15 year Festival journey in our community. Our very first opening concert was with the Whatcom Symphony Orchestra October 6th, 2009! All of these years, we have been celebrating a lot of different genres of music with hundreds of musicians from near and far. Tonight Folkert-Hans brings greetings from the Netherlands and Dmitri Matheny Group will bring us to the lovely world of Henri Mancini's music.

This season the Dmitri Matheny Group honors Henry Mancini’s 100th birthday with new arrangements of his classic hits. “Mancini is my hero,” says Matheny, “Not just for his award-winning scores and orchestrations, but because of his unparalleled gift for songcraft. There’s nothing like a Mancini melody! Wistful, whimsical, romantic, or sinister, his songs always deliver.”

6pm: Reception
7pm: Concert: Celebrating Henry Mancini’s 100th birthday, Dmitri Matheny Group plays Mancini!
