Perlman is co-chair of CAMA’s Centennial Honorary Artists Council and returns to Granada as part of CAMA’s Centennial Season of world-class concerts and special events.
“It’s always been a great pleasure for me to perform on the CAMA series, and I’m looking forward to many more visits. I send you my heartiest congratulations on your centennial season. Bravo!” Perlman said.
