Laguna Beach Live is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing the top talent in classical, jazz, chamber music to Laguna Beach. Throughout the year a variety of concerts are hosted in town that attract visitors from all over the state and country.
The signature event is the week long festival that just wrapped up last month, The Laguna Beach Music Festival. This year was the 10th anniversary of the festival and it was spectacular. Edgar Meyer, Sam Hawood, The Calder Quartet, The Calidore Quartet and Joshua Bell were just some of the featured artists. The festival continues to bring music lovers of all ages together in Laguna Beach. The entire week the town is buzzing with talk of all the artists and what spectacular new music can be heard. Beyond the professionals that are featured, local musicians also play at Hotel Laguna, roundtable discussions artists are open to the public, and even a fundraiser for future music festivals featuring one of a kind painted “artful violins”.
