En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Verotta

As classical music ensembles strive to reach out to a broader audience, the search for different performing venues outside the traditional concert hall and church settings is a common goal among many. However, the 43 year-old concert series at Old First Concerts continues to present its successfully diverse array of concerts under the same roof: the Old First Presbyterian Church in San Francisco.

The San Francisco Bay Area made another strong case for itself as a focal point for contemporary music on Saturday night. The setting was Trinity Chapel in Berkeley which hosts the Trinity Chamber Concerts series. This particular concert, entitled On and Off the Keys, simultaneously marked the culmination of their 10th annual season and the beginning of the Festival of Contemporary Music.
