streaming from the Hudson Valley |
ALIVEmusica is an exciting new collaboration from a group of leading chamber music presenters in New York's Hudson Valley.
The Hudson Valley region has long had a thriving culture for the arts, and in particular Chamber Music.
We have joined together to present renowned musicians performing live in a superb concert hall, and streamed directly to you, our esteemed patrons, and to audiences beyond as well.
In the fall of 2020, we presented four concerts from the unique ambiance of the Howland Cultural Center in Beacon, NY, an acoustically and visually stunning space, appreciated by both musicians and audiences. Our first concerts are listed below.
We will continue to bring more superb streaming concerts to you in the Winter and Spring of 2021.
Be sure to catch these concerts as they are broadcast, and feel free to return to enjoy them again afterwards.
