Info:
The San Francisco Chamber Orchestra's innovative, admission-free Family Concert series presents its first program of the 2014-2015 season. These 45-minute programs, designed for young listeners as well as adults learning about classical music, are the cornerstone of the SFCO's educational programming and have been greeted with capacity crowds and enthusiastic responses from our audiences all season.
The Bay Area's favorite storyteller Joel ben Izzy is back, with more wonderful tales accompanied by music provided by the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra. This program features a reprise of last season's Main Stage hit Luck or Wisdom?, a wonderfully crafted folktale paired with an energetic klezmer-style score by Stephen Saxon.
Hosted by SFCO Music Director Benjamin Simon, this entertaining program brings music to life!
Visual delights and audience participation make these fun-loving concerts a joy for all ages! The SFCO's Family Concert series introduces Bay Area children ages three through twelve to a wide range of classical music, setting the stage for a lifelong appreciation of this engaging art form. Audience interaction is welcome and encouraged in an informal but engrossing listening experience. Questions, clapping, and sing-alongs are all common occurrences at these joyful productions.
Program is presented November 22 at 2 pm at Calvary Presbyterian Church in San Francisco, November 23 at 12 pm at the Oakland Asian Cultural Center, and November 23 at 3:30 pm at the College of San Mateo Theater. Visit thesfco.org for our complete schedule.
Admission is free, but donations are gladly accepted. The San Francisco Chamber Orchestra's Family Concert series is a fully professional production. Seating is first come, first served (no tickets or reservations are issued). Doors open 30 minutes before each performance time.
