Berkeley Symphony Concerts on Sundays in October

Louis Bryant III

The Berkeley Symphony teams up once again with KALW to bring you four exciting concert broadcasts each Sunday evening in October.

You’ll be transported to the concert hall for music from the 2023-24 season, including recent works by Jimmy Lopez, Juan Pablo Contreras, and Peter Shin and classics by Duke Ellington, James P. Johnson, and Louise Farrenc, as well as “from the archives” performances of local composers like Lou Harrison and Dylan Mattingly. For each of the four programs, Berkeley Symphony conductor and music director Joseph Young joins Sarah Cahill to talk about his inclusive programming which welcomes diverse audiences into the concert hall; how listening to Brahms can make you feel less alone; why he pairs Duke Ellington with Modest Mussorgsky; and the role mentorship plays in his life.

Join Sarah Cahill, host of Revolutions Per Minute, each Sunday in October from 6 to 8 p.m. for these special Berkeley Symphony broadcasts.
