Memorial Day has just recently passed as I write this, and the 2016 summer season has officially begun. Along with the plethora of hiking, biking and beaching the area is known for during our short but glorious summer months, it’s also this time of year that the area veritably explodes with concerts and cultural events galore.
And what better time than now to make plans for attending the yearly TOCCATA music series in and around Lake Tahoe. Featuring the Tahoe Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, this year’s listening pleasures includes everything from Baroque, Broadway to Pops and a few other surprises as well. With so many venues to choose from, you’ll be sure to find a place and time to fit into your schedule!
