These concerts provide a unique opportunity for students and teachers to experience a performance and participate in a conversation about the works and the artists who present them. All matinees are approximately one hour in length and include program materials provided in advance of the concert. Tickets are $10 for each concert, including students and chaperones. All matinee performances are at 11am.
