Here are reviews from people who have taken our Music Appreciation trips:
“Imagine your best professor or instructor. Now imagine that person could inspire understanding and passion about opera in even the most resistant individual. Package it in the most striking of American cities and at the Met – the absolute mecca of opera. That is the experience you’ll have with Road Scholar.”
— Cliff from Ellsworth, Maine. | Road Scholar Class of ‘15
“A fantastic program! Well organized, fun and highly informative. The highlights were the many different concerts we attended and the conversations with local jazz musicians before and after. I would definitely consider attending the Montréal International Jazz Festival again with Road Scholar!”
— John from Charlottesville, Va. | Road Scholar Class of ‘04
