VENUE: The Old Town Temecula Community Theater

Anita Graef, a cellist, who has been described as “world-class musician” who plays with “high energy and polish,” has earned recognition for her music-making as a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral performer. 

Piano soloist Peter Dugan has performed across North America and abroad as a recitalist, soloist, and chamber musician. Recognizing musical versatility as the hallmark of a 21st-century musician, Mr. Dugan is equally at home in classical, jazz, and pop styles. 

Kara Dugan’s diverse vocal career ranges from oratorios to world premieres. She has been praised for her “voice warmth and rich character.” She often performs with her husband Peter Dugan. Their electric repertoire has led them to perform at a variety of venues.
