In 2022 the San Diego Symphony will present 14 free Music Connects events at churches and community centers throughout San Diego as a part of its “Hear us Here” 2022 winter-spring season. The events will feature conductors from around the US and musicians from the San Diego Symphony Orchestra performing hour-long presentations of classical works, interspersed with conductor-led musicological introductions. The events will run February 12, 2022 through April 3, 2022. To reserve a seat for a Music Connects performance, please visit www.sandiegosymphony.org/music-connects

The annual beloved San Diego Symphony Music Connects series returns for the first time since 2020 when it was forced to pause due to the ongoing pandemic. The series was originally created in 2018 as a way to introduce the community to classical music through free and accessible events each year. This season, the series, still free-of-charge, has now expanded to more than 8 churches and community centers throughout the county. The one-hour events will include music by composers like Beethoven, Elgar, William Grant Still and more, and will feature a talented group of rising conductors leading members of the San Diego Symphony Orchestra.

The San Diego Symphony is coming to your neighborhood for a FREE concert of classical favorites! This one-hour concert is for ages five and up. It’s the perfect way to Find Your Music™ with the San Diego Symphony and discover how music moves you.
