Taking place from January through July 2026, “United in Sound” highlights the musical riches that have evolved and flourished in the U.S. as our country marks the 250th anniversary year of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. In more than 35 concerts at Carnegie Hall, festival programming will feature jazz, rock ‘n’ roll, hip-hop, country, bluegrass, classical, Broadway, film music and more, showcasing the very best of the American spirit.
