Enhance your concert experience with our exclusive five-part pre-concert series, designed for anyone passionate about 18th-century music, historical performance, and period instruments. Held alongside our 2025 season, this program offers you five curated pre-concert events, each including wine, nibbles, and a deep dive into the music and historical context of our performances, guided by guest experts.
