Just Announced:
Stave Sessions 2018 Performers
| What do they have in common? On the surface, not a whole lot. A hip hop orchestra, a red-hot young jazz singer, an audacious solo flutist and protean singer-songwriter, a hammered dulcimer ensemble that defies categorization, and a Boston rock band with a violinist and a live sound designer. Maybe the thing that ties them all together is the fact that we can’t wait to hear them. Don’t miss Stave Sessions 2018 at 160 Mass Ave. this March for five nights of music. Explore the full line-up, and buy your tickets today!

The View From the Stage: Canadian Brass
| Thanks to all who joined us for Canadian Brass at NEC’s Jordan Hall. The award-winning quintet delivered an exciting program that spanned the gamut, from Dowland, Bach, and Gabrieli, to arrangements from West Side Story. Celebrity Series photographer Robert Torres captured many of the night's most special moments, including – at the request of the quintet – a unique view of the performers doing their final encore of Rimsky-Korsakov’s "Flight of the Bumblebee."
