San Francisco Chamber Orchestra Presents: Classical at the Freight! September 29, 2008

Classical at the Freight brings the Bay Area's best classical musicians to the Freight for an hour of top-flight chamber music in an informal, friendly atmosphere. San Francisco Chamber Orchestra music director Benjamin Simon is your host; his goal is to un-stuffify and de-mystify classical music for the general music lover, sharing the joys and rewards of this timeless art with new audiences young and old.

Tonight's performance features San Francisco Conservatory professors, international stars, and musical comrades, cellist Jean-Michel Fonteneau and violinist Axel Strauss plus guest artists Dana Putnam Fonteneau on cello and Benjamin Simon on viola. Don't miss the chance to hear two of the Bay Area's most exciting and accomplished string players perform the violin and cello duo by French master Maurice Ravel and an unusual work for violin, viola, and two cellos by Russian Anton Arensky.
