Beer and music: Resident Conductor Christian Reif leads the San Francisco Symphony (SFS) in a festive Oktoberfest-inspired program featuring Bavarian waltzes and polkas, rollicking opera arias, and traditional drinking songs and games on Tuesday, October 3.
« The event is an homage to the classic German tradition, and brings the fun and merriment of Oktoberfest to the streets of Hayes Valley and Davies Symphony Hall, » the press release says. An outdoor area just outside the Hall will be transformed into a vibrant and sophisticated pop-up beer garden, complete with unlimited beer, brats, fire pits, and live music for those who purchase a special VIP package.
