Opening for Feng E: Langley Ukulele Ensemble

Established in a suburb of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 1981, the Langley Ukulele Ensemble is made up of 28 middle and high school students whose ages range from 12 to 18 years, with a rigorous performance schedule that includes as many as 80 concerts per year locally, regionally, and internationally. Led by Musical Director Peter Luongo, they have traveled across Canada, throughout the United States, and Japan and have performed at major ukulele festivals in Honolulu, New York, Reno, and Japan. The Langley Ukulele Ensemble was also prominently featured in the award-winning documentary film the Mighty Uke: The Amazing Comeback of an Underdog and they have appeared annually at the Sheraton Waikiki resort in Honolulu, Hawaii each summer for more than 25 years. 

The Langley Ensemble’s mission is to model excellence in musical performance while representing their community and displaying the best attributes of today’s youth.
