"Inside Look" Open Rehearsal & Lunch Discussion
Have you ever wanted to know more about a piece of music in the Classical Tahoe season? Or what the life of a Guest Artist is like? Or how the busy professional orchestra musicians balance work and life? Join us for an Inside Look!
These questions – and any others you may have – can be explored in an informal setting on Thursdays on the campus of the Classical Tahoe Pavilion during the 2018 season. Open to the Tahoe public, attendees are invited to listen to a portion of the Thursday morning orchestra rehearsals, bring their own bag lunch, and enjoy an hour of conversation after the rehearsal. Occurring each Thursday of the concert series (July 26, August 2, and August 8) these drop-in events are hosted by Cindy Rhys (program annotator) and include special guests such as Maestro Revzen, Orchestra Librarian Robert Willoughby-Jones, Production manager Stephanie McMullin, and selected orchestra members. Come join in the exploration! We look forward to seeing you.

meet the musicians meet the composer
A chance to hear the individual artistry of our Classical Tahoe musicians in an intimate setting, with fascinating music, narration, and great acoustics. Plan to join us after the concert to meet and exchange ideas with the concert’s musicians. Music and conversation, beautiful and personal.
