Art of Élan is committed to pioneering unique chamber music events and bringing the excitement of classical music to diverse audiences. Founders Kate Hatmaker (violin) and Demarre McGill (flute) have furthered their mission of keeping classical music relevant and accessible by expanding the scope of classical music in San Diego through innovative, one-hour programming in unique performance venues. For the past seven seasons, they have partnered with The San Diego Museum of Art to present an eclectic mix of old and new works, including multiple commissions and world premieres, all set among the art of the museum's collection. This season pays homage to the beauty and power of the human voice and that timeless expression of the human spirit - opera. In a salute to the resilience and spirit of the new San Diego Opera, the 2014-2015 season celebrates the universal appeal of this magical art form. The creative approach to programming will take attendees on a season-long journey of classical music and song called The Song Goes On.
