Concerts & Events

Admit Everyone

With our fun, friendly approach—and a full season of admission-free concerts—we really are admitting everyone! Who says classical music has to be boring, stuffy, expensive, or only for those with advanced degrees? The San Francisco Chamber Orchestra is attracting standing-room-only audiences of all ages and backgrounds. Come hear us perform in five Bay Area cities: San Francisco, Berkeley, Oakland, Palo Alto, and San Mateo.
