Conversation Across Centuries
About the Event
From Shakespeare-inspired song to Beethoven’s haunting “Ghost” Trio, composers engage the voices of the past.
The evening culminates in Vaughan Williams’ luminous "Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis"—a rare chance to hear this soaring work performed by a specially assembled large ensemble in all its radiant breadth.

The Baker-Baum Concert Hall is an intimate performance space with superb acoustics ideally suited for chamber music and classical recitals. In addition, its design incorporates state-of-the-art technology and adjustable acoustics, making it a world class space for amplified concerts, film, dance, theatre, lectures, and more. A wooden grillage frames the elegant curvature to the seating area creating a shape reminiscent of a European opera house. Outside this framework, lighting washes the walls in color to create a sense of space beyond.
