Concert season
MG3 & CGT
7:30 p.m., Monday, March 24, 2025
Evangel Church Auditorium, 3261 Gordon Drive
If a trio of highly accomplished guitarists can conjure musical magic, imagine what six can achieve. Since 2009, the Montreal Guitar Trio (MG3) and the California Guitar Trio (CGT) have electrified audiences with their breathtaking virtuoso performances. The MG3’s nylon-stringed guitars blend seamlessly with the CGT’s steel strings to deliver an inventive repertoire of original compositions and new arrangements of progressive rock, world, jazz, and classical music. Visit MG3's website as well as CGT's. Enjoy each trio's own videos here and here, or watch them perform together here!
Rastrelli Cello Quartet
2:00 p.m., Saturday, April 5, 2025
Evangel Church Auditorium, 3261 Gordon Drive
The Rastrelli Cello Quartet has astounded audiences around the globe for close to a quarter-century. Hailing from Russia and Belarus and established in Germany, these four classical virtuosos explore the cello’s uniquely diverse world of sound. Performing only music they love, these extraordinary musicians delight with a mixture of chamber music works, orchestral classics, and their own arrangements of popular music, jazz, klezmer and tango. Visit the artists' website and enjoy their videos here.

ABOUT us
With a loyal following for more than 50 years, the non-profit Kelowna Community Concert Association presents five first-class concerts a year, generally between September and May. Only professional artists of international and national stature and acclaim are selected to present a variety of music, theatre and dance with wide audience appeal.
Run entirely by volunteers, the KCCA receives no outside funding and does not solicit sponsors. Pre-selling affordable season passes ensures that we have the stable budget needed to assemble our ambitious programs.
​
​Volunteers help with backstage refreshments for performers, mail-outs to members, stage managing, hosting receptions, and floral arrangements. We’re extremely grateful to our volunteers, who enable us to present these professional concerts at such a reasonable cost.
​
Each year we also donate up to $1,000 in support of local student musicians who are invited to perform before our concerts.
