San Francisco Conservatory of Music, 50 Oak St at Van Ness, SF 94102 (Map)
SF Conservatory of Music is the preferred venue of BARS
SFCM Caroline H.Hume Concert Hall
“Of all the classical concert locales in the Bay Area, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s Concert Hall … comes close to being ideal. The vibrant acoustics suit both large and small ensembles. With its symphony-size performance platform, tall windows and elegant Beaux-Arts decor, the auditorium feels intimate yet expansive. It helps that its location in the Hayes valley puts it close to public transportation and great restaurants and bars.” (New York Times).
BARS offers reserved seating in the orchestra and choral balcony (when available).
First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1187 Franklin St at Geary, SF 94109 (Map)
First Unitarian Universalist Church Cathedral
Built in 1889, this elegant space features large, stunning stained glass windows, dramatic chandeliers, oak detail and cushioned seating. A rear balcony, with light cascading from another large stained glass window, holds a rare, three-thousand pipe organ and choir loft. The sanctuary gets rave reviews from musicians and their audiences for its great acoustics.
BARS offers sectioned general admission seating at First Unitarian.
