Catch A Live Concert At Home With The Symphonia

If you miss attending concerts while sheltering at home, The Symphonia has just the ticket.

The Boca Raton-based chamber orchestra has launched The Symphonia At Home, a weekly Facebook Live series on Thursdays at 5 p.m. Recently, Jeffrey Kaye, M.M., artistic director and principal trumpet, kicked off the informal series, performing his trumpet from his back porch, alongside his rescue dog, Gidget.    

“Just because we’re all hunkered down at home doesn’t mean we can't enjoy a little live music from the professional musicians of The Symphonia,” says Annabel Russell, executive director, in a press release. “This series will hopefully bring a little joy to those who view it. And, frankly, we don’t know what to expect – we’re leaving the artistic creativity up to each musician, so this should be fun!”

Since The Symphonia's performance season was cut short due to mandatory closures, the group is hoping this initiative will help bring the music into classical music lovers’ homes and showcase the people and personalities behind the instruments.

Recognized as the region’s world-class chamber orchestra, The Symphonia provides high-quality classical music for the enjoyment and benefit of the South Florida community. Its performances and educational outreach programs feature nationally and internationally acclaimed conductors and soloists, enhancing the cultural lives of area residents, with special emphasis on younger citizens.  

The performances can be seen on The Symphonia’s Facebook video page.
