Nuvi Mehta
Widely considered one of the finest speakers on classical music, Nuvi Mehta has a gift for capturing the mind and heart of every person in his audience. The L.A. Times likens him to a young Gary Cooper, saying, “His old-fashioned Hollywood charisma extends to an eloquent and theatrical way of speaking that is almost entirely lost today.” Combining drama and music education in his concerts, he is creating a new generation of classical music lovers.

Dr. Kristi Brown
Dr. Kristi Brown-Montesano approaches graduate seminars, adult-education classes, podcasts, and pre-concert lectures with the same philosophy: that offering context—rigorously researched, provocative, and humanistic—empowers listeners and musicians to make their own meaningful connections to classical music. As a faculty member at the Colburn School Conservatory of Music from 2003–22, she served as Chair of Music History and helped shape the degree programs of the institution. Today, Brown-Montesano is an Assistant Teaching Professor in Musicology at the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music. She is also a busy public scholar who collaborates with many of Southern California’s most distinguished musical organizations, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Los Angeles Opera, La Jolla Music Society, and the Philharmonic Society of Orange County.

What The Critics Say

I look forward to Le Salon’s new season and will continue to be a vocal advocate for its many charms, as well as for its social, educational and musical value. This chamber music series takes listeners closer to the music and musicians than any other I know of.
