See music through new eyes at the 2025-2026 A New Lens concert series!

On October 17th, David Stevens (saxophone, clarinet) and Celine Ferro (clarinet) are excited to present music that is colorful, new, and emotional. This concert will feature woodwind chamber and solo music that David and Celine have a personal connection to, including works by local composers Jonathan Russell and Delvyn Case. You’ll hear about the relationships musicians develop with composers, and build your own connections to contemporary music.

Accessibility Information

Powers currently requires guests to go up a short flight of stairs to the main floor of the school. We are committed to improving access to our building for those with limited mobility. The school is in the early stages of this large and important project, but there is no formal timeline set for when it will be started/completed as of yet.
