Our 53rd season is here — and Artistic Director Daniel Stepner tells the story himself in the Boston Musical Intelligencer.
"A Grand Tour" spans the 17th and 18th centuries — from Monteverdi and Marais to Bach and Telemann, with excursions as far as South America and Asia. We're also thrilled to be coming home to Slosberg Music Center at Brandeis after a two-year hiatus, with every program repeated at Saint James Place in Great Barrington.

Four weekends, July 16–August 8. Soprano Dominique Labelle opens the French Baroque program; later highlights include Bach's "Musical Offering," Julia Glenn's journey through Scotland, Bolivia and China, and a finale of 17th-century Venice.

Tickets at astonmagna.org — $50 advance, under-30s $15, students & children FREE.
