The experience of intimate chamber music is an extraordinary event
  where we join the musical conversation by being close enough
    to sense the performers’ every gesture and interpretive nuance.
     Over the past year we have all encountered much of the
      world from afar. This season, come and delight in the
      irreplaceable joy of being at the center of live music.
