Intimate Classics: Ashu, Saxophone
Presented by the California Center for the Arts, Escondido, the up-close-and-personal Intimate Classics series offers locals the chance to experience chamber music expertly performed in the intimate setting of the Center Theater. Attendees have the option of completing their theater experience with a pre-performance gourmet dinner.
Shortly after taking up the saxophone at age 10, Ashu developed a charismatic and moving performance style which has enabled him to win competitions typically reserved for pianists and violinists. The Arizona Daily Star described his playing as "irresistible, sublimely beautiful and mesmerizing."
Tickets range from $20 to $40. Children 12 and under get in free. Pre-show dinner available for an additional fee. Purchase tickets online at www.artcenter.org or by calling the box office at (800) 988-4253.
