Located in San Francisco Bay, the Angel Island Immigration Station served as an immigration port between 1910 and 1940. For all immigrants, descendants, and families, Angel Island is a living landmark that symbolizes diverse experiences of detention, racism, exclusion, hope, and determination.

Del Sol Quartet believes that music can, and should, happen anywhere. Del Sol creates possibilities for unexpected discovery, sparking dialogue and bringing people together.
