Classical Music Institute

The Classical Music Institute's Teaching Artist Fellows program brings young adults together to learn about performance, as well as teaching grade school students early music education. They'll perform a free concert Friday night at 7:30 at San Fancesco di Paola Church.

We explore repertoire from major and minor keys, highlighting how young artists express the character and nuance that each represent. We hear a teen cellist perform a bright and sunny work with ties to both the Baroque and Romantic eras, a young violinist brings a dark and stormy Beethoven Sonata, and a 17-year-old pianist performs a major fugue from the Well-Tempered Clavier.

The Classical Music Insitute's chamber music series brought a program inspired by a new exhibit of art by Amalia Mesa-Bains at the San Antonio Museum of Art. Listen to this concert, recorded Oct. 4, 2024 and featuring music by Robert Schumann, Juan Pablo Contreras, Gabriela Ortiz, and more composers.
