By mid-March, the United States will have been at war in Afghanistan and Iraq for over seven years. To mark this important, if tragic, anniversary, over 150 of the Portland area's best classical, contemporary, and world musicians, gathered by Bill Crane and Thomas Lauderdale, are uniting to make a giant musical gift to the city and beyond.
24/7 is a series of 24 dramatic concerts, each starting upon the hour, beginning 7:00 p.m. Saturday, March 21, and continuing to 7:00 p.m., Sunday, March 22, in the Weiden & Kenndy Atrium.
