Overview
Mission
Reflections series presents solo, chamber and orchestral music along with works of different artistic disciplines, engaging its audiences in combinations of music, text, images, and film. Through its innovative programming, reflections explores the interplay between music and other art forms, and how one creative work can inspire another. Drawing from a wealth of music and art from all over the world and from many modern and historical artistic styles, and with the collaboration of a first-rate ensemble of creative and performing musicians and artists, reflections programs present newly created and existing works that both reflect upon one another and invite the audience to reflect anew on universal themes.reflections continues its mission of presenting audiences with musical, artistic, cultural and educational experiences and creating new audiences for classical music.
What it reported doing in 2025
During 2025, reflections series presented original, alllive productions and programs, further increasing the number and variety of our live presentations and continuing our outreach to widen the size and different elements of the local communities who are aware and attend our presentations. We have kept our ticket proces low to make our performances accessible to more members of the community. We also filmed our performances and posted excerpts on our youtube channel in order to reach new and even wider audiences and those who were not able to attend our live performances. Using creative and performing musicians and artists from all artistic disciplines and backgrounds and from various locales including locally, nationally and internationally, reflections series continued its mission of creating new audiences for classical music and the arts through collaborative effort and unique programming.
