The group, comprised of five professional musicians, performs classical masterpieces side by side with Latin music and more contemporary repertoire in both traditional and unexpected settings. Gibbs & Main is known for its interactive educational concerts for children and adults, often performing in schools, churches, and libraries, as well as restaurants, art galleries, and parks, bringing high-caliber performances to a wide range of audiences.

The Backstage Pass performance will be video-streamed live on the Backstage Pass website (at WXXI.org/backstage-pass) and will be available following the broadcast.
