The Lancaster Cultural Arts Center is looking forward to hosting its second annual three-day Historic Lancaster Music Festival on Sept. 5, 7 and 8. The gala will conclude with a fundraiser reception after the final concert on Sunday, Sept. 8.
This year’s festival is expected to be as entertaining as last year’s production, and the CAC is delighted the festival will be under the same leadership. Calin Lupanu, Charlotte Symphony Orchestra concertmaster and founder of Chamber Music for All (CM4A), is once again the music director.
