The Columbia Orchestra presents a series of "Preludes," a discussion series held before each Classical Concert. This enlightening, entertaining series allows you to experience the stories and ideas behind the concert's selections in an interesting, informal setting. Each free session runs from 6:30-7:10 (Subscribers can still take advantage of priority seating at 7:10.) Concertgoers everywhere agree that the more you know about the music you are hearing, the more you enjoy it. Our “Preludes” series is designed to offer you that knowledge in a way that is easy and fun. We hope that you will enhance your concert experience by joining us for each Prelude!
