Sonidos Del Summer Concert Series

Sonidos Del Summer Concert Series

Sonidos Del Summer Concert Series will kick off on Saturday, May 6, 2023, in the heart of the Historic Northside District at Marine Park. Marine Park was founded in 1894 and previously served as a central gathering place for the community. Nostalgic stories are told of family-friendly events, outdoor movies, concerts, and festivals in the park. The mission of Sonidos Del Summer (Sonidos) is to bring Marine Park back to life with a FREE concert series that is family-friendly and alcohol-free.

Sonidos Del Summer concert series has been made possible by the GM on Main Street Grant Program by Main Street America and General Motors. In 2022, General Motors and Main Street America created a grant program to fund innovative placemaking initiatives in local commercial districts near GM facilities. The Historic Northside District and Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce place-making project was selected as one of six 2023 projects to be funded throughout the country. This grant has allowed an event like Sonidos to come to life. Sonidos is a three-part concert seriesthat will take place on the first Saturday of May, June, and July from 5pm to 10pm. Each date will consist of local musical performances, along with a vendor market, Boys & Girls Club Mobile Clubhouse Experience, and various food trucks. See below for details regarding each of the three concert dates.

Sonidos Del Summer 2023 Lineup

May 6th – Bidi Bidi Back to the Park: this concert will feature the Selena Forever Tribute band in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the Selena y Los Dinos’ performance in Marine Park (1993). Selena’s performance in Marine Park is a fond memory for many Northside locals that reminisce about the frequent activities and festivals held in Marine Park in decades past. The event will be opened by DJ Kreate and DJ Raulito on the turntables. Attendees are encouraged to wear their favorite Selena memorabilia and come sing their hearts out.

June 3rd – Amor y Cumbia: this concert will have a double-headliner featuring Quimikoz and Frequenzia. June is the month to celebrate love and there’s no better way to do so than with some live Cumbia that encourages dancing and singing along. The event will be opened by DJ Soy Capaz on the turntables.

July 1st – Northside 4th: this concert will feature Latin Express, which is made up of a family of Northside locals. This event will be a full-day 4th of July celebration that acts as a merger of the Northside Neighborhood Association’s yearly parade and Latin Express’ Block Party that has been put on for nearly 30 years. The event will be opened by DJ Jay Cantu.

Sonidos del Summer has been planned in collaboration with the following local organizations: Historic Northside District, Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Northside Neighborhood Association, Artes De La Rosa, the National Hispanic Latino Law Enforcement Organization Fort Worth Chapter, the City of Fort Worth and the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Tarrant County. The Historic Northside District is thankful for the tremendous support from the community through volunteering and participating in committees, which is critical to the success of these events and any future initiatives.

Texas Ballet Theater logo

Leadership of Texas Ballet Theater (TBT) announced the nonprofit ballet company’s upcoming 2023-2024 season Tuesday night during a season celebration event at the Perot Museum of Nature and Science.

Dracula, an audience favorite last performed by TBT in 2015, will open the season with performances September 15-17, 2023, at the AT&T Performing Arts Center Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House in Dallas and October 6-8, 2023, at Bass Performance Hall in Fort Worth. TBT Artistic Director Laureate Ben Stevenson, O.B.E., choreographed the ballet in 1997. The first production featured TBT’s Acting Artistic Director, Tim O’Keefe, in the titular role. 

“Having the opportunity to present Dracula is a full circle moment for TBT,” O’Keefe said. “Many of our artistic and production staff worked on the world premiere 25 years ago, myself included. I’m looking forward to working on this ballet with Ben [Stevenson] again and sharing it with our audiences, who have been eager to see it again.”

TBT will stage its annual production of Stevenson’s The Nutcracker for the holiday season. The company will perform the family-friendly ballet November 24 – December 3, 2023 at Winspear Opera House and December 8-24 at Bass Performance Hall.

The company will return to the stage after the holidays with Brilliants, a mixed repertoire production featuring four shorter ballets in one program. The featured ballets are Rubies, choreographed by George Balanchine; Grand Pas Classique, choreographed by Victor Gsovsky; Le Corsaire Pas de Deux, choreographed by Rudolf Nureyev and Without Borders, choreographed by Val Caniparoli and originally created on the company in 2016.

Brilliants will run February 23-25, 2024, at Bass Performance Hall and March 1-3, 2024, at the AT&T Performing Arts Center Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre.

Beauty and the Beast, choreographed by Lew Christensen, will end the season with performances May 3-5, 2024, at Winspear Opera House and May 17-19, 2024, at Bass Performance Hall.

Season packages start at $48. Patrons can purchase a package online at texasballettheater.org/season-packages or by contacting the Box Office at 877-828-9200 option 1.

Fort Worth’s Bass Performance Hall Celebrates 25 Years

Fort Worth’s Bass Performance Hall Celebrates 25 Years

Performing Arts Fort Worth to host free community
events open to the public April 8 and 16

Performing Arts Fort Worth, the non-profit owner and operator of Bass Performance Hall, announced today two free community events to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Bass Hall. A Resident Company Showcase will take the Bass Hall stage on Saturday, April 8 at 6:30pm, followed by a Community Open House, allowing attendees to get a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the Hall on Sunday, April 16 from 1:00pm – 5:00pm. Both events are free, however a ticket reservation is required for entry. For ticketing information on both events, visit www.basshall.com/25.

“For 25 years, Bass Performance Hall has been a theater, a classroom and a pillar of our community,” said Performing Arts Fort Worth President & CEO Dione Kennedy. “Whether you’re new to the area or have been with us since the very beginning, I invite you to join us as we commemorate this great milestone not just for the Hall, but for Fort Worth.”

On May 1, 1998, the Nancy Lee and Perry R. Bass Performance Hall opened in downtown Fort Worth with great anticipation. Now, 25 years later, Bass Hall is not only considered the crown jewel of Fort Worth, but a Texas icon and nationally distinguished performing arts venue. Built entirely with private funds, the Hall’s mission is to serve as a permanent home to the major performing arts organizations of Fort Worth and as a premier venue for other attractions to enhance the range, quality and accessibility of cultural fare available to the public; to promulgate arts education; and to contribute to the cultural life of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, and the region of North Texas.

Bass Performance Hall is permanent home to the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra, Texas Ballet Theater, Fort Worth Opera, the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition and the Cliburn. Each resident company operates independently from Performing Arts Fort Worth and manages its own programming schedule at Bass Hall.

In addition to owning and operating the Hall, Performing Arts Fort Worth also presents national touring Broadway productions under the Broadway at the Bass Series presented by PNC Bank, as well as intimate concerts, holiday specials and family entertainment in the BNSF Popular Entertainment Series.

Through student matinees, virtual programming, master classes, summer camps and more, the Children’s Education Program at Bass Performance Hall offers a variety of performing arts educational opportunities of superior quality, free of charge, to all students and educators. Promulgating arts education, Bass Hall has served as a classroom to over 1,784,000 students in the last 25 years.

The 2,042-seat multipurpose Hall is characteristic of the classic European opera house form. An 80-foot diameter Great Dome tops the Founders Concert Theater while two 48-foot-tall angels grace the Grand Facade. Since the Hall opened in May 1998, the angels have become preeminent cultural icons of the Dallas-Fort Worth community.

Christopher Cross & Air Supply headline 2023 Legends Concert Series

Christopher Cross & Air Supply headline 2023 Legends Concert Series

Series to raise money to benefit HSC students. 

Genre-defining five-time Grammy Award winner Christopher Cross and platinum-selling rock icons Air Supply will be the featured artists for the 2023 Legends Concert Series — The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth’s signature fundraising event.

This year’s concert will take place at 7:30 p.m. June 9 at Bass Performance Hall, 525 Commerce St. in Fort Worth. Tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday.

The concert, presented by JPMorgan Chase & Co., will benefit HSC students and the establishment of HSC’s new College of Nursing. Since the 2013 launch of the series, the university has raised more than $2.5 million to support HSC initiatives.

Chairs for this year’s benefit concert are Fort Worth residents Michele and Fred Reynolds, with Paul Dorman serving as honorary chair. Michele serves on the UNTHSC Foundation Board as an emeritus member, and she received HSC’s VISION Award in 2015.

“We are honored to chair and support Legends this year,” Michele said. “My husband, Fred, and I have been involved with HSC for more than 15 years, and we continue to be amazed by the innovation and collaboration of the faculty, staff and students.

This university is on the forefront of research, public health and clinical care. I know without a doubt that the funds raised at Legends will be used to create the innovative solutions our community so desperately needs.”

Joshua Worley received one of the Legends scholarships in 2021. The fourth-year Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine student said the financial support was life-changing.

“Receiving this scholarship allowed me to dedicate time to my family when I’m not studying while also lowering the financial burdens after graduation and residency,” he said. “This scholarship leaves a legacy of giving back, and I cannot wait to continue that legacy.”

Past Legends’ headliners have included ZZ Top, Trisha Yearwood, Dwight Yoakam, Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald, Chicago, Vince Gill, Jay Leno and Clint Black.

For ticket information, go to unthsc.edu/legends, or contact Lee Ann Embry at 817-735-0204.

About the Performers

Throughout his four-decade career, Christopher Cross has won five Grammys, an Oscar, a Golden Globe, had five top-10 singles and sold 10 million albums. He is best known for his song “Sailing,” which was featured on his debut album. This album won the “Big Four” most prestigious Grammy Awards — Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist — for the first time in history.

Air Supply was formed after its founding members, Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock, met in 1975 at their first day of rehearsal for “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The Australian duo quickly gained a reputation for incredible harmonies. They drafted a demo and have been captivating audiences at their live shows since. The band has released 17 studio albums, 13 compilation albums, four live albums and 27 singles during their peak era. They had seven top-five singles on the Billboard Hot 100 list from 1979 to 1983, including the No. 1 hit “The One That You Love.” In 2013, they were inducted into the Australian Recording Industry Association Hall of Fame and celebrated their 40th anniversary in 2015.
