Kauai Voices is serving a mixed plate of five different music genres: Blues, gospel, jazz, Hawaiian and country at their “Mixed Plate” concerts. There are four concerts coming starting this weekend.
They will feature a combination of different flavors or choices on one big plate. The musical chefs are Artistic Director Randy Leonard and accompanist Monica Chung.
Fifty singers perform in each genre, with accompanied instruments.
“It is going to be a delicious concert, music for everyone, and the variety of music will highlight our diverse musical talents in our group,” Leonard said.
Kauai Voices will unveil a new gospel piece.
The upcoming concerts are:
• Kilauea, 6 p.m. Saturday, Anaina Hou Porter Pavilion;

Come early to the Kilauea show and mingle with the crowd. In Waimea, you can indulge in movie snacks in the theater. In Lihue, try pies by The Right Slice before or in-between the concert.
Featured songs include “Moonglow,” “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “Thank God I’m a Country Boy” and “Hawaii Aloha,” said Leonard.
There will be a special hula performance, too.
