This is a groupmuse

A live concert in a living room, backyard, or another intimate space. They're casual and friendly, hosted by community members.

Host

This is my first event featuring Eric Moore, Cellist of New Music Decanted. I've heard this program previously and it is astonishingly wonderful. Each movement of the cello suite is paired with a piece by a living or recent artist. Eric explains background of each.

A couple of notes: my residence is not easily accessible - lots of stairs - and parking is very limited/challenging. Ride services recommended.
