Special guest Candela, led by Edgardo Cambon, has been lighting up the Bay Area salsa scene for 30 years. American River College is thrilled to combine forces and bring ARC's 70 piece orchestra to the stage with his high energy level band, featuring great vocals, a tight rhythm section, and powerful horns.

In addition, ARC will premiere Daniel Avanto's Piano Concerto featuring soloist Joe Gilman. Avanto has been composing orchestral music since he was 13. He graduated from ARC in 2018 and is currently studying Music Composition and Theory at Sacramento State.
