The QSF journey into the future of chamber music is nearing the end of its second decade, and the group’s passion for playing the musical styles that bring them joy still inspires them. As musicians they stand on the shoulders of their 16th-century predecessors, who introduced their instruments to the western world.
Fast forward three hundred years … QSF’s eclecticism embraces the spirit of our time and continues the journey into the chamber music of the 21st century.
12:30 pm: Aza
AZA unites traditional Tamazight (Berber) music, indigenous to the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, with the global influences of its diverse members. Evocative of Saharan-African blues, yet with an original style that truly defies categorization, AZA’s stirring performances feature deep, danceable rhythms, intricate string melodies, and soaring, soulful vocals. Visually dynamic and engaging performers, AZA has been inspiring international audiences for nearly ten years.
2 pm: Jubba White
“Music is a universal language, and Reggae, as a genre represents so much of what we are facing globally.” Jubba White/White Stone Productions…
Many artists grow their talent as young adults. Jubba White entered the world banging on kitchen pots and exercising his dynamic lungs at three years old. Born in the rural area of May Pen, Clarendon (Jamaica), Jubba learned to sing and play drums in church, where his mother was a foundation member and sang in the choir…
“I love working with unique sounds and blending voices. My friends and colleagues are from across the globe and music is my favorite way to bring them together.”
3:40 pm: Luv Phenomena
The emcee. Powered by community past, present and future, Chris Burger sees the role, responsibility and life of the lyricist to empower and enlighten. “Music is a gift and in order to bask in its beauty, we must cherish and nurture it, then give it away”.
With over 13 releases, 1300 live shows across the nation and international, CB’s modus operandi is the organic interplay of live musicianship with the lyricist. “There’s a beautiful conception of auditory healing when the rhythm, melody, and vocal tone come together and meld into one sensual serum”. Music is life in all its pain beauty and hope.
The Luv Phenomena is the 1st volume in a series that combines the strength of this emcee- sense of community as power- and his knack for wordplay and vocalastics. “I’m a student of the golden era of HipHop and those of us of that era know that we stand on great shoulders of the past, folks that have died for us to have the opportunity to speak, we have a responsibility to respectfully carry this legacy for future generations, and we get to have the time of our lives doing it”.

04.11 UPdate .. 2020 worldOne July 4 Festival Hiatus Announced
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 4/11/2020
El City Council Approves City Manager Recommendation to Cancel the Annual 4th of July Festival for 2020 Due to COVID-19 Concerns
El Cerrito, Calif: At the City Council meeting on April 7, 2020, the Council approved City Manager Karen Pinkos’ strong recommendation that the 4th of July/worldOne Festival this summer be cancelled due to concerns around COVID-19.
Like the rest of the state, El Cerrito’s City Hall has been closed since Governor Newsom issued the orders to shelter at home … Additionally, even if the shelter-in- place order is lifted, she questioned the practice of planning for an event where large numbers of people would be in close proximity to each other so soon after the global pandemic emergency.
After the meeting, City Manager Pinkos said: “This is a painful decision to make, because the 4th of July/worldOne Festival is such a wonderful annual celebration of our community. However, I believe it is in the best interest of our community to cancel the event this year. At a time when we are facing such uncertainty with respect to this public health crisis, we want to do what is necessary to protect our residents, visitors, and City staff. I want to thank the City Council and our residents for their understanding as we continue to do our best to respond to these unprecedented times.”
03.27 UPdate ..
Our public health crisis has all of we watching the calendar .. as thousands of public events and necessarily postponed or cancelled. Our annual July 3+4 festival is clearly in the concern zone. We’ll be watching all CDC and local advisories. We anticipate a requisite festival hiatus for this season. We will seek to constellate the 2020 festival in its full blossom when the time is right. Practice Prudent Preventatives. Go Easy As You Can. Blessed Be… ALLAWE.
