Good Beats makes its Capital One Hall debut with its largest and most ambitious concert yet. The evening brings together the Good Beats Ensemble along with acclaimed saxophone virtuoso Valentin Kovalev, and award-winning saxophone quartet Project Fusion.
The program includes modern classical music (including Gershwin and Shostakovich), as well as crossover renditions of beloved video game and anime themes — from a sweeping Final Fantasy VII medley and Cowboy Bebop to selections from Studio Ghibli.
Like every Good Beats concert, your ticket supports our mission of bringing professional live music to communities with limited access.
Mark your calendars, grab your tickets, and bring your friends, family, and fellow music aficionados for an unforgettable night where classical artistry meets the music you love.
Classical saxophonist Valentin Kovalev is redefining the voice of the saxophone for the 21st century. His commanding performances, innovative programming, and powerful digital presence are elevating the instrument on the world's most prestigious stages.
Project Fusion is a Laureate of Astral Artists, “...elevating the saxophone to its rightful throne” (Splash Magazine), and they have captured top prizes in the nation’s most prestigious chamber music competitions, including the Fischoff, Coleman, Plowman, Chesapeake, and Music Teachers National Association chamber competitions. Project Fusion’s name is derived from the philosophy that music is an infinite, ongoing “project” guided by a sense of adventure and creativity, and that the collaboration of diverse perspectives can result in dynamic, surprising, meaningful and enjoyable artistic creations.
