A Sensory Friendly Family Concert
Doors Open at 10:30am
We’re excited to launch the SFCO’s first program designed with our Neurodiverse community in mind. What does that mean? We’ll refrain from sudden loud sounds, our string quartet will be an appropriate volume for the size of venue, and the seating will be a bit farther apart. There will also be some fun hands on activities for those kids 0-12 who wish to participate.

Tod Brody and Friends
The San Francisco Chamber Orchestra’s principal flautist Tod Brody returns to Classical at the Freight with a program of trios for flute, viola and harp. Claude Debussy’s colorful work for this ensemble is the centerpiece of our program, plus other trios inspired by Debussy’s unusual combination of instruments. With violist Ben Simon and a harpist soon to be named, this program promises to be a wonderful presentation of infrequently performed works.
Our Classical at the Freight concerts are ticketed events. General admission is $9 in advance, $11 at the door; all SFCO members get two tickets for the price of one.
