Peace Through Music 2026 gathers students, families, and neighbors to celebrate the power of music to build bridges of peace, love and understanding and to help bring about social change and nonviolent solutions to issues within our community, our country and our world 🎶.
This year's concert theme is "You've Got a Friend," and will feature songs that speak of friendship, support, solidarity, partnership and LOVE! From Ain't no Mountain High Enough to For Good to Reach Out I'll Be There to You've Got a Friend in Me, our cast will be sharing music to uplift, inspire and enliven you, and you will certainly want to sing--and dance?!--along!
Guest Artists include Antonio Lopez, Emilce Giacomini, Janis Kelly, Lisa Bell and Pedro Silva, along with vocal groups Spirit Voices, Standley Lake High School Chamber Choir, Jazz & Gospel Choir (JGC) and our audience favorite, PTM Mass Choir, backed up by an all-star rhythm section comprised of Chris Carvalho on guitar, Craig Schwartz on piano, Jon Stubbs on bass and Larry Thompson on drums.
We'll also be joined by a number of non-profit organizations that are "thinking globally and acting locally," including Boulder MUSE, Boulder Rotary, Women Powering Change, and YOUnify, sharing information about their programs and inviting you to get involved.
By purchasing tickets and attending our 16th annual benefit concert in honor of the Season for Nonviolence, you help Boulder MUSE offer high-quality musical instruction and performance opportunities to under-resourced youth across Boulder County. Your participation supports a welcoming community where every young musician has space to learn, grow, and be heard 🎼.
