Step into a transcendent afternoon of chamber music that resonates with the rich tapestry of immigrant experiences and the universal language of music. This concert, thoughtfully curated around the theme of immigration, showcases the profound contributions of immigrant composers to the world of classical music. Renee Hemsing (violin), Guy Fishman (cello), and Ian Watson (harpsichord) will take the stage to bring this story to life.

Each piece performed is a testament to the journeys, trials, and triumphs of those who have ventured far from their homelands in pursuit of their artistic passions. Throughout the afternoon, you will be transported through a diverse repertoire that spans continents and centuries, featuring works by luminaries such as George Frederic Handel, Luigi Boccherini, Jean Baptiste Lully, and Dietrich Buxtehude. Their music not only reflects their personal struggles and aspirations but also celebrates the universality of human experience.

As you immerse yourself in the exquisite harmonies and intricate melodies, you'll embark on a journey that transcends geographical boundaries and speaks directly to the heart. Join us for an unforgettable exploration of how music, in the hands of immigrant composers, has the power to bridge cultures, evoke emotions, and inspire profound connections across time and place.

This event is free to the public thanks to the generous support of the Office of Nightlife Economy's Wake Up the Night Grant. Additionally, this event would not have been possible without the support of Boston Properties (BXP).
