Audience Education
Here’s your chance to learn more!
Does classical music sound like a foreign language to you?
We believe that the music is inherently beautiful, but that the history and significance of the composer, the composition, and the ensemble enrich the listening experience. That is why we offer these exciting education events for our audience and community.
Pre-Concert Lectures – Listen like a professional!
Forty-five minutes before each 3 p.m. Sunday concert, all attendees are invited to join CMT Executive Director Bruce Sorrell, musicologist Jason Heilman, and special guests for an insider’s preview of the techniques, history, and significance of the upcoming performance. Read more for a complete list of last season’s lecture topics or further introduction of our distinguished lecturers.
