“Was last night a success for OSM? You betcha! Playing before a full house with a full orchestra, Roger asked the best from them, and they responded.”

“Roger has a very creative vision for each performance and delivers it in the most outstanding way.”

“Phenomenal!”

“Bravo to Roger and all our talented musicians. The audience was treated to a most memorable evening.”

“It was an amazing evening. Thank you to one & all, especially Roger! Outstanding!!! Totally impressive!”

“Last Saturday night my husband & I enjoyed an incredibly talented Orchestra Santa Monica concert at the Broad Stage.  It was a lifetime of joy presented through a single evening of Symphonic Film Music. We thank you!”

“Splendid evening last week! Still exalted from the passion and the artistry of the musicians, especially Mr. Venkatesh’s keyboard wizardry”. 

“I thoroughly enjoyed last Saturday’s concert. Everything was perfect–the selection, orchestra, Roger as director, the soloist, ushers, etc”

“Bravissimo and congratulations for a very memorable evening!  Maestro Kalia led OSM to perform at the highest level, and the audience enthusiasm said it all. Last but not least, was the magnificent playing of the Beethoven by the very gifted Vijay Venkatesh”.

“I love classical music but am not very knowledgeable so I also appreciated the background information on the pieces…it made it even more enjoyable”.
