HOW IT STARTED
Symphonic Stories began serendipitously but has evolved into my life’s mission.
If you’re reading this, you’re likely curious about our work. Allow me to introduce myself: My name is Sabrina Gamboa, founder and lead strategist of Symphonic Stories.
This agency was born when I was hired by Pablo Sainz-Villegas, the world-renowned classical guitarist, to manage his digital strategy right after I graduated from college (Berklee College of Music). I never anticipated the success of the strategy I devised for Pablo, but upon reflection, the reasons for its effectiveness became clear:
I approach music marketing from a musician's perspective because I am one, and, more importantly, because I love music more than anything.
Every one of my clients has experienced remarkable results within the first few weeks of our collaboration, whether it's an increase in Instagram followers or conversions on their website. How do we achieve this? By harnessing the power of social media and taking the time to understand what makes each musician unique.
WHY IT STARTED
When I speak to classical musicians about social media, the most common reaction I hear is:
“It’s a pity that the industry has come to this…”
I don’t share this sentiment.
When recording equipment first became available to the public, many musicians likely felt similarly, arguing that it would kill the magic of live music or that a microphone couldn’t capture their true sound. Yet, here we are, over 150 years later, still recording music and attending live concerts. The impact of recording technology was simply to make quality music more accessible.
I believe social media holds the same potential.
Social media offers our industry the chance to reach more people more quickly. Moreover, it provides an opportunity for both the genre and the concert-going experience to become more accessible to people of all backgrounds.
Classical music doesn’t have to be a high-brow experience. In fact, it risks fading away if we reserve it only for the intellectual elite.
My mission with this agency is to contribute to keeping this industry relevant and opening its doors to new audiences.
I wholeheartedly believe that music is meant to be enjoyed by everyone, and that is always my guiding principle.
