It's important to note that "It's a Grand Night for Singers" will continue as usual at 7 p.m. on the first Saturday of each month as it has for the last 16 years without a single interruption. The Napa and Sonoma communities have grown to depend on this monthly performance as a brilliant showcase for singers from the San Francisco Bay Area and a marvelous night of live entertainment for audiences from far and near.
Richard Evans continues to host this grand singing tradition with the next performance at 7 p.m. Feb. 4 in honor of the life of Vladislav. Mr. Evans, the consumate pianist and showman, makes these performances exciting, bringing to life the last four centuries of grand music traditions as he introduces the singers who perform pieces from a world repertory of music. It is a special privilege to have Richard Evans as host since he draws upon his rich experience as a contemporary Broadway composer.
