11am & 6pm

Bourgie Hall / I Concertini Series

I Concertini Series

TOUCH THE MUSIC

You’ve never been able to be this close to the music: to hear it, to see it and be touched by it. In a rethought Bourgie Hall, you’ll find I Musici in the centre of the room, surrounded by… you. The conductor leads you through these concerts that last from 60 to 65 minutes with edifying commentaries and fascinating anecdotes. What’s more, one hour before the concert starts, we offer coffee (matinée) or wine (cocktail hour) that you can enjoy with us or among friends. The name may mean small, but our I Concertini have great character and guarantee pleasure and conviviality.
