We thank Novant Health for their commitment to amplify the arts here in Charlotte and celebrate local and international artists alike with their contribution,” said Samantha Kowert, Vice President of Development at Blumenthal Performing Arts.

 

As part of the inaugural season of programming at the newly constructed The Amp in Ballantyne, Disney Pixar’s Coco Live-to-Film Concert will feature a screening of the complete film with Oscar® and Grammy®-winning composer Michael Giacchino’s musical score performed by the 20-member Orquesta Folclórica Nacional de México.

 

“Ballantyne is a growing and vibrant community and Novant Health is thrilled to be a part of it,” said Ben Brodersen, president and chief operating officer of Novant Health Ballantyne Medical Center. “We opened our brand-new medical center in June and, through our partnership with Blumenthal Performing Arts, are happy to support bringing music, arts and culture to our area.”
