The Sound Studio Classical Series Returns!
These concerts offer a rare opportunity to experience classical music from inside the performance itself. Set in our intimate Studio space, this four-concert series places the audience just feet from the artists, creating a powerful sense of connection, immediacy, and shared focus. Inspired by both tradition and innovation, each concert explores a distinct facet of the classical repertoire—from American voices and timeless masterworks to virtuosic solo performances and bold contemporary collaborations—inviting listeners to engage with the music in a deeply personal and immersive way. After each performance join the artists for a post-show meet-and-greet, with concessions remaining open as you mingle with the artists, friends, and fellow music lovers.
