The Salon is a revival of Tom's fun and informative series of classes, covering a truly eclectic variety of music. Enjoy learning about and listening to music in the intimate setting of Tom's Venice home, with wine and cheese and lively commentary. He'll present everything from the origins of music, to music of the middle ages, to opera, jazz, Brazilian and tropical latin music, plus world music from many countries along with comparative genre listening (great voices from different cultures, classic and modern music across cultures, etc.).
Tom's Music Salon will run on six Tuesday evenings from 7:00 to 9:30 p.m., between February 16 and March 23, 2010. See below for sample syllabus/content. Class size is limited.

Current KCRW members receive a 10% Fringe Benefits discount (proof of membership will be required at first session). Payment by cash, check, or credit cards accepted.
