PRELUDE DISCUSSION SERIES
THE MORE YOU KNOW,
THE BETTER IT SOUNDS
Tune up for the concerts! Prelude discussions enrich the concert experience with insights into the music and the lives of the composers. Step into the hushed and intimate atmosphere of Overture Hall with just a handful of other music lovers for a conversation with the maestro, or the guest conductor or even, on rare occasions, the composer!
ONE HOUR BEFORE THE PERFORMANCE
IN OVERTURE HALL
If you have a ticket to the concert, you have a ticket to the Prelude Discussion. Each discussion begins one hour before the concert, and they usually last about 30 minutes, so you'll still have plenty of time to chat or have a cocktail before the concert starts. There are prelude discussions for all MSO Subscription concerts except the Christmas Spectacular.
