Tenor Pene Pati will be among the performing arts star singing at the Community Music Center’s Centennial Gala on March 2.
For 100 years now, San Francisco’s Community Music Center has stood out for its mission of making music accessible for all people, regardless of financial means. It has offered classes tuition-free or on a sliding scale taught by local talents in Latin, jazz, blues, Middle Eastern and string orchestra, serving 3,000 student annually.
CMC is growing in physical size and number of students served. In February, the nonprofit broke ground on an expansion of its main Mission District Branch at 552 Capp St. — there’s also a campus in the Richmond District at 741 30th Ave. — which will allow CMC to teach music to 1,000 more students. “We have developed a transgender choir for transgender, intersex and queer people called New Voices Bay Area,” Steinberg said. “It’s really difficult for folks who identify as trans to find a safe space to sing, and to explore their voice, so we wanted to meet that need.
Heggie, who is the composer of operas that include “Dead Man Walking,” as well as hundreds of songs and chamber, choral and orchestral works, has done concerts at CMC and for its students as far back as the mid-1990s.
