California Symphony - Fresh Look: The Symphony Exposed

California Symphony presents Fresh Look: The Symphony Exposed this July, expanding access to music education and offering a fun and informative introduction to classical music for "classically curious" adults in the Bay Area. Hosted by award-winning instructor Scott Foglesong, the four-part summer lecture series will be held on Thursdays, July 10, 17, 24, and 31, 2024 from 6:30-8pm at Chateau Room at Pleasant Hill Senior Center.

Fresh Look provides an introduction to classical music and the rich offerings of California Symphony, making classical music and the orchestra accessible to a broader audience. The curriculum - which was developed by Scott Foglesong, California Symphony Music and Artistic Director Donato Cabrera, and General Manager Sunshine Deffner - explores the instruments of the orchestra, different musical periods and styles - including one class that focuses almost exclusively on Beethoven - and the state of classical music today. As a special end-of-course treat, the final class includes a live performance and Q AND A with California Symphony musicians.
