Comprehensive in scope, these in-depth seminars occur during the Summer Festival and involve highly regarded lecturers from the Northwest and guest artists, representing unique aspects of the classical music world. These seminars are always rich in detail, reflecting the social and historical context of each composer and the specific repertoire of the concert evening. Each is augmented by a coveted visit to a concert rehearsal. Purchase a seminar ticket the same way you purchase a concert ticket. A limited number of seats may be sold at the door, depending on available space.
