Classical at the Freight brings the Bay Area's best classical musicians to our stage for an hour of top-flight chamber music in an informal, friendly atmosphere. San Francisco Chamber Orchestra music director Benjamin Simon is your host; his goal is to un-stuffify and de-mystify classical music for the general music lover, sharing the joys and rewards of this timeless art with new audiences young and old.

Join us for a celebration of Johannes Brahms' 175th birthday, and a chance to enjoy the wonderful and seldom-heard String Sextets, masterpieces of the chamber music repertoire that represent some of Brahms' most beautiful and exciting music. Tonight's performers, all members of the SFCO, are Robin Sharp and Debra Fong, violins; Benjamin Simon and Madeline Prager, violi; Dana Putnam Fonteneau and Eric Gaenslen, celli.

In addition to the fabulous music, the audience will have the chance to win prizes in our Brahms Trivia Contest, and join us for a piece of German chocolate cake!
