Just as a chef’s table experience offers unparalleled proximity to the culinary action, “Music Dialogue” allows you to witness the creation of unique masterpieces with renowned musicians in real time. The event begins with appetizers & cocktails in the Lobero Courtyard, followed by an on-stage performance at 6:30 PM. This exclusive behind-the-scenes event fosters a deeply immersive melodic adventure that transcends the traditional concert-going experience.

Beginning with an impromptu riff, acclaimed Music Conductor Heiichiro Ohyama and four former members of the Chamber Orchestra (Amy Hershberger, Joel Pargman, Colleen Sugata, and Trevor Handy) will navigate new territory, performing portions from the third movement of Mendelssohn’s String Quintet together for the first time. Observe their trial and error as the artists try to recreate the composer’s intent, breaking down the reasons behind artistic choices and deconstructing manuscripts to uncover their hidden meanings.
