What makes a good pairing? More often than not, it's the juxtaposition of two completely opposite forces that piques our interest the most. The same holds true in music. Join the San Francisco Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band for an evening of musical contrasts. Featuring pieces by Holst, Gandolfi, Del Borgo, and James DeMar, experience the unique sounds of industrialization opposite nature, youthful whimsy opposite mortality, discipline opposite revelry, and many more. Featuring Deborah Pittman on Native American flute.
More About the Band:
The San Francisco Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band (SFLGFB) is the first openly-gay musical organization in the world, inspiring the formation of LGBTQ+ bands, choruses and performing groups around the globe. On a local level, in December 2018, San Francisco Mayor London Breed signed into law an ordinance declaring the San Francisco Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band the ‘Official Band of the City and County of San Francisco’ which coincided with the end of the Band’s 40th Anniversary year. Founded in 1978 by Jon Sims at the height of Anita Bryant’s anti-gay crusade, the band has made music to build understanding among communities of all sexual orientations and identities for more than four decades.
