flute, violin, cello, double bass, piano, harp, featured artist, featured composer music by Turina, Higdon, Alter, del Aquila, and Andrés Martín inspired by water, color, and the world beyond "Submerged" invites audiences to immerse themselves in a wide spectrum of tone colors and textures. Pieces include Turina’s shimmering "Ciclo Plateresco," Jennifer Higdon’s mesmerizing "Pale Yellow," Aaron Alter’s contemplative "Introspective Blues #1," Andrés Martín’s powerful "Synchronicity". The title piece, Miguel del Águila’s "Submerged" (for flute, cello, and harp), is inspired by Alfonsina Storni's poetry, and it celebrates her life, evoking the quiet, creative depths where artists retreat to dream, reflect, and begin anew. The program culminates in a powerful finale: the unveiling of Hugo Crosthwaite’s 2025 Camarada art commission, inspired by Andrés Martín’s "Tango Bajo el Agua," which will be performed alongside the artwork. This deeply personal piece explores the dual nature of water as both life-giving and potentially destructive. Martín invites us to consider a striking metaphor: if we can learn to tango underwater, we can find beauty even in the most unlikely or challenging places.

Multi-platinum artist Lee Brice is headed to San Diego for a different kind of show. For one night only, he’s trading the big stage for a sunset cruise, playing solo with just a guitar, a mic, and the stories behind the songs. Experience the music the way it was first written — stripped down, in a part-concert, part-conversation setting where Lee takes his time, talks to the crowd, and delivers a performance that you won’t forget. Come aboard for a buffet dinner, open bar, and panoramic views of the San Diego skyline for a night that’s more personal than anything you’d find in an arena. VIPs start the night off right with a meet and greet with Lee Brice, plus a signed photo and more exclusive perks. As the city lights glow, Lee turns the yacht into a listening room, where every lyric lands closer and every note carries further.
