BSM's Concert Series

Voices New and Old (VNO) is our primary concert series. As an educational institution, we believe concerts should be about both sounds and ideas—mind and emotion. Concerts in the Voices series are built around a theme.

Faculty Focus (FF) is a series of concerts designed to feature solo performances by a member of our extraordinary faculty.

Student Voices (SV) is our newest series and each concert is a faculty-curated student or student/faculty collaborative concert. These concerts, based around a historic, geographic, musical, or theoretical idea or theme, introduce students to the world of music as a "sound and idea" phenomenon.

Children's Concerts (CC) focuses on concerts specially designed for children (and their parents of course!) Pull up a rug, have a seat, and enjoy.
