2025 Concert Schedule


February 23, 2025
Misner& Smith

Technically pre-cise songwriting mirrored with an improvisatory spirit and soaring harmonies have made the band—consisting of Sam Misner and Megan Smith—one of the most acclaimed acts in the Americana world. Blend- ing elements of rock and roll, traditional folk ballads, and more pop-leaning ideas, Misner & Smith makes music gloriously nonconforming. Teaming up with the duo are co-producer, and multi-instrumentalist Bruce Kaphan (American Music Club, David Byrne, The Black Crowes) .This special show will celebrate the official release of Misner & Smith’s sixth album, All is Song.


March 23, 2025
Brandon and James

Since forming a duo, Brandon and James have been touring around the world with their innovative, classically inspired pop songs, and their undeniable charm and wit. Brandon James inspired mil- lions as a finalist on season 8 of America's Got Talent, and he continues to do the same with his “soaring tenor vocals,” (NPR Music). James Clark has performed with some of the biggest stars from around the world, ranging from Idina Menzel and Olivia Newton-John to Van Dyke Parks and Lea Salonga.


April 27, 2025
Young Musicians Concert

For over 30 years,  Music On The Divide has presented a concert of local young musicians who apply, audition and then perform before a live audience. We have been treated to delightful and amazing performances by young people who have the disipline to practice, polish and perform pieces on a variety of instruments. Two seasons ago we were treated to a performance by Ariadne Antipa, a world-renowned concert pianist who performed a decade and a half ago in multiple Young Musicians Concerts. Other participants in the YMC have become teachers and professional musicians.

Thomas Pandolfi

Pandolfi began his music career early on at The Juilliard School (BM & MM) where the young prodigy caught the influential ears of Vladimir Horowitz, who would become his mentor, and legendary composer, Morton Gould. Since then he has been an audience favorite, selling out the world’s most prestigious stages, including Lincoln Center Alice Tully Hall, Strathmore, The Kennedy Center, Kiev Opera House, Bucharest’s Romanian Athenaeum, London’s Cadogan Hall, and many others.


September 7, 2025
Paul Kamm and Eleanore MacDonald

Modern folk musicians Paul Kamm and Eleanore MacDonald, from Nevada City, CA., have been writing and performing original, contemporary folk music for over three decades. A blend of contemporary and traditional styles, their music is graced by exquisite harmony, compelling songwriting, deceptively simple arrangements and intricate guitar work… all embraced by great heart.


October 19, 2025
Chris Webster and Nina Gerber

As a duo, these two are pure magic. Chris Webster is a compelling singer who finds the emotional centre- point in a song while singing with power and passion. Chris and Nina have teamed up to release an album of duets called Apple Blossom Lane, featuring Chris’s bluesy, jazzy and soulful voice backed by Nina’s nuanced and evocative guitar playing.



December 7, 2025
Cantare Chorale
Holiday Concert

Established in 1992, Cantare Chorale is an auditioned community chorale, bringing quality choral music to the residents of El Dorado County and beyond. Led by local director Mariia Pecheno- va, the group shares its evocative mu- sic and high standards of excellence with the community by performing beautiful choral music. Cantare Cho- rale concerts engage and delight audi- ences with classics, madrigals, folk, popular, jazz, seasonal and modern arrangements.
