FALLBROOK – Like everyone, Fallbrook Music Society has been exploring ways to stay connected with supporters during this pandemic. While in-person performances have been canceled that has not stopped the organization.
"I am just thrilled to be able to announce Fallbrook Music Society Channel on YouTube," Ann Murray, executive director of the music society, said. "At the suggestion of one of our board members, this channel showcases the terrific local talent right here in San Diego, and we are hoping that music lovers across the county will tune in for these free performances."
The station launched May 8 and featured two performances. The first was with Joshua and Lucas Schaefer, both of whom are child prodigies and live in Murrieta. Joshua is 14 years old, a freshman in high school and plays the clarinet, piano and violin. He performed in Carnegie Hall in 2019 as part of the String Orchestra of the Temecula Conservatory of Music.
His brother, Lucas Schaefer, is 13 and in middle school. He started playing piano at the age of 5 and was the recent winner of the Steinway Society of Riverside Piano Festival in March.
The second concert featured the husband and wife team of Todd Rewoldt and Lesi Mei. Both Rewoldt and Mei teach at San Diego State University and have significant private music studios teaching students of all ages.
Rewoldt is one of the founding members of the STET-Saxophone quartet and performed for the Fallbrook Music Society in August 2019. Mei is an accomplished pianist and has performed worldwide.
"Fallbrook Music Society remains committed to expanding the scope of classical music concerts we bring to our community," Murray said. "These concerts are each very different and showcase the depth and breadth of what really makes classical music such an enduring art form."
The YouTube channel is free and can be accessed by typing in "Fallbrook Music Society Channel" in the YouTube search bar or by visiting http://bit.ly/FallbrookMusicSociety.
More concerts will be added as they are recorded, so patrons are encouraged to subscribe to receive notifications.
