    Host

    A Far Cry

    We excitedly welcome back our Presenting Partner, A Far Cry for 4 fabulous Nights Out offerings this 2024-25 season! Groupmuse community members have exclusive reduced price access to these incredible concerts at 45% or more off. What an amazing deal!

    Here's what A Far Cry has to say about this concert's program:
    "Drawing on styles from across the globe, Last Dance delivers a rhythmic assortment of dance-inspired classical compositions. Feel the groove of Golijov’s Last Round, written as an homage to tango legend Astor Piazzolla; Weston’s Juba for Strings, celebrating the music and dance birthed from the African diaspora; Wijeratne’s contemporary/classical mashup Two Pop Songs on Antique Poems, sampling Schubert’s Death and the Maiden; and Enescu’s lush and exuberant Octet for Strings, completed when he was just 19. You might just dance right out of your seat."

    And in the classic Groupmuse fashion, there will be time for our Groupmusers to socialize afterwards! Each ticket includes a free wine and dessert post-concert reception at Jordan Hall immediately after each show. <3

    Seating will be assigned. Please pick up your tickets at Will Call prior to the concert's start time.
