SACRAMENTO, CA, UNITED STATES, September 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Beatles’ White Album returns to the stage in rare live show in Santa Rosa -- Featured in the Press Democrat

40+ Musicians Bring The Beatles White Album to Life in Santa Rosa

SPMA’s Beatles Guitar Project Presents The Beatles White Album Live in Concert in Collaboration with Santa Rosa Junior College on September 27 & 28. This 40-piece rock orchestra is presenting an unforgettable live performance of one of the greatest albums in rock history.

What:

The Beatles Guitar Project is teaming up with the Santa Rosa Junior College (SRJC) Music Department to present The Beatles White Album! Live in Concert — a rare chance to experience this legendary album performed live in its entirety.

When:

Saturday, September 27 – 4:00 PM Matinee

Sunday, September 28 – 2:00 PM Matinee

Where:

Santa Rosa Junior College

Burbank Auditorium

1501 Mendocino Avenue Santa Rosa, CA 95401

Tickets Available at: www.sacprepmusic.com

Why It Matters:

• The Beatles released the White Album in 1968 but never performed its songs live. Aside from a spontaneous rooftop jam during the Let It Be sessions, fans never had the chance to hear this iconic record on stage.

• SPMA has painstakingly arranged the White Album for full orchestra — Rhythm Section, Strings, Woodwinds, Brass, Percussion, and Choir — bringing the music to life with more than 40 professional musicians.

• Proceeds benefit the Sac Prep Music Academy and the iHeartMusic.org Scholarship Fund, which support music education and guitar programs in underserved schools.

Special Features:

• Master of Ceremonies: Peter Petty

• Local Talent: Santa Rosa favorites Rick Fulkerson & Melissa Fulkerson (vocals), SRJC Director of Music Jerome Fleg (saxophone), Bob Williams (violin), Richard Loheyde (violin), Jesse Coppock (double bass), and more, alongside the pros of The Beatles Guitar Project Rock Orchestra.
