New Artistic & Operational Consultant At Green Music Center

Rick Bartalini is booking more shows in California’s wine country with his new gig as Artistic and Operational Consultant at Sonoma State University’s new Green Music Center in Rohnert Park.

After a hugely successful opening with Josh Groban, Bartalini told Pollstar he’ll be bringing more popular music shows to the venue in conjunction with the university’s On Campus Presents, which promotes concerts, lectures, films, comedy and other events.

Josh Groban poses with Sonoma State University president Ruben Arminana, Rick Bartalini, and Laurence Furukawa-Schlereth, executive director of Weill Hall at Green Music Center.

As chief of Rick Bartalini Presents, he recently scored a major coup with Diana Ross at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Theatre and presented Lyle Lovett at the Marin Civic Center.
