Members gather to talk about and listen to music of a particular composer or conductor. Additionally, there are live, special programs throughout the year. This club provides a great way to study and learn about classical music.

The Y’s Men Classical Music Society offers educational and inspirational programs of classical music from the 17th century through contemporary times.

Following introductory remarks, a DVD is shown featuring a particular composer, musician or conductor. The program concludes with a discussion of the presentation, a Q&A session, and suggestions for future programs.

Previous programs have focused on such leading luminaries as Gustav Mahler, Hector Berlioz, Leonard Bernstein, Arturo Toscanini and Bela Bartok. Future programs will cover similar giants in classical music. The Society is a collaborative effort with members often suggesting programs.

Because of limited seating, reservations are required to attend.
