The SYV Concert Series filmed four concerts from the 2021-22 season to present the artists and masterworks to their broad community of music fans, students and teachers at no cost. The programs include links to artists’ biographies and program notes.

The first filmed concert, Love Songs & Dances — An Evening of Liebeslieder with John Churchwell, piano, Esther Tonea, soprano, Victor Cardamone, tenor, and Robert Cassidy, piano, will premiere first.

Thanks to the Robert & Mercedes Eichholz Foundation, the Towbes Fund for the Performing Arts (a field of interest fund of Santa Barbara Foundation), and filmmaker Ben Maas for funding this new component of the concert series.
