  5. Watch or discover the guest artists:​​

  •      Highly acclaimed jazz artists Mon David and Louie Reyes; if you have not heard them sing, you should;
  •      From the cast of MrC’s numerous musicals and operas, Annie Nepomuceno, Miguel Vera and 20-year veteran of the Los Angeles Opera, Tenor Sal Malaki;
