The weekly six-part series, which captures beautiful music in an equally-beautiful setting of Lake Tahoe, will begin January 2, 2022
PBS Reno is thrilled to broadcast a new season of its Classical Tahoe series featuring world-renowned musicians who gather to perform orchestral music near Lake Tahoe.
PBS Reno recorded six concerts during the 10th Classical Tahoe Chamber Music Series in July and August 2021, from the breathtaking outdoor setting of Sierra Nevada University in Incline Village, Nevada. PBS Reno’s production and technology teams utilized nine cameras to capture a variety of angles of the musicians, the instruments, and the audience. PBS Reno also deployed state-of-the-art technology on-site to provide an internet livestream enjoyed by tens of thousands of people around the world.
“Producing this series is the most fun we have all year for many reasons,” said Dave Santina, PBS Reno Director of Local Content. “The location is sublime, and so, of course, is the incredible music we experience throughout the festival. Mainly, it’s the opportunity to work together with the Classical Tahoe staff, who are both highly professional and endlessly gracious.”
The footage from the concerts, along with in-depth interviews with several musicians, has been produced into a six-part series, with each episode lasting for one commercial-free hour. The brand new season of Classical Tahoe debuts on PBS Reno channel 5.1 on Sunday, January 2, 2022, at 4 p.m. The series concludes on Sunday, February 6, 2022 at 4:00 PM.
“Classical Tahoe's 10th Anniversary Festival is an artistic tour-de-force ranging from 12-year-old violin Phenom Amaryn Olmeda to celebrating Brubeck@100 with the Classical Tahoe Orchestra,” said Karen Craig, Classical Tahoe Executive Director. “PBS Reno captures the artistry of 72 astounding musicians, ten stellar soloists, and three diverse conductors, making live music together for wildly appreciative audiences.”
This is the second consecutive year PBS Reno has produced the Classical Tahoe series.
“PBS Reno is so pleased to have this partnership with Classical Tahoe,” said Kurt Mische, PBS Reno President and CEO. “Being able to share these wonderful concerts with people all throughout our service area is a treat for our viewers and reminds us all of the world class music and art created right in our own backyard.”
