CONCERT + WINE TASTING

JEAN-féry rebel – SONATE EN Ré MAJEUR

ARCANGELO CORELLI – sonate en FA MAJEUR

conor lyons – Suite POUR VIOLONCELLE en Ré MINeur

FRANZ XAVER RICHTER – SONATE EN SI BéMOL Majeur

come revel in the pleasures of summer with fine wine and even finer music, as twisted pearl hauls you out of the heat and into the bar for an evening of baroque tunes and bacchanalia. tickets for this fundraiser concert include a (really quite fancy) musically inspired wine tasting organized by michelin award-winning annette bar à vin (montreal) and ko-ze wine room (chicago).

unlike our 18th century predecessors, we do not benefit from the patronage of a bewigged aristocrat (that’s where you come in). wig or not, at the end of the evening, the top donor of the evening will receive an invitation to commission a custom dedicatory piece from one of the twisted pearl composers at no charge. the resulting piece of music will be premiered in one of our 2027 season concerts. 

all the proceeds from this event go to supporting the band, enabling us to continue in our mission to provide you with affordable, accessible concerts of historical music and new music in historical styles. that’s our way of using music to bring people together.
