Opera SB welcomes back world-renowned pianist and conductor, Warren Jones to work with its 19|20 Chrisman Studio Artists. Held in partnership with the Braille Institute in Santa Barbara, this masterclass is free and open to the public.
Pianist and conductor Warren Jones enjoys a notably eclectic career that has taken him to virtually every corner of the musical world. Jones was born in Washington DC and currently lives in New York City. He is a long-time member of the faculty of Manhattan School of Music and former faculty at the Music Academy of the West and Rutgers University. He is the guest artist in residence at New England Conservatory and North Carolina School of the Arts.
As part of Opera SB’s ongoing commitment to civic practice and creating more opportunities for the Santa Barbara community to access and experience opera, the company will be presenting this Masterclass in partnership with the Braille Institute in Santa Barbara. The Braille Institute is a non-profit organization offering a broad range of free programs, classes and services serving thousands of students of all ages to empower themselves to live more enriching lives with blindness and vision loss. Opera Santa Barbara is excited to partner with the Braille Institute this year to offer a bilingual “Intro to Opera” workshop for students.
