We all have a piece of music that takes us to a different place… that helps us make our Great Escape We asked for the stories behind the pieces that kicked off your love of classical music, so it’s only fair we share ours! Scroll down for stories from the KUSC staff.

When I was a college student, I visited Eastern Europe for the first time as part of a concert tour. During the performances, two of our professors would join the college chamber orchestra for this work, Johann Sebastian Bach’s Double Concerto for Violin and Oboe in c minor. And now every time I hear it, it takes me back to all the little churches we performed in across the Czech Republic and Hungary.
Ready to hit the town? Light up your nights this week with a spin at Church of 8 Wheels, the return of Cal Academy s NightLife, and midnight dance performances at the top of Salesforce Tower.Plus, arts lovers will find several new exhibitions and performances this week including CAAMFest, Yerba Buen.

With more restaurants reopening and relaxed restrictions on in-person gatherings, this Mother’s Day can look and feel quite different than it did in 2020.
Many Bay Area restaurants are offering holiday brunches on Sunday, May 9, but it’s also an opportunity to seek out celebratory meals at other eateries, from dim sum to Turkish breakfast spreads. And if you’re sticking to eating at home, there are plenty of options for takeout and meal kits (wood-fired bagels in bed, anyone?).
