Returning Home

Join us on Sunday, February 28, 2021 at 3PM Eastern for "Returning Home," our fourth virtual concert for the 2020-21 season!  

Home has a way of defining what we see as normal and comfortable, but life is filled with times that are anything but.  We'll start this concert in strange and unfamiliar territory, slowly making our way home.  Our guides for this trek are the inimitable Merz Trio based in Boston, Massachusetts, and the sensational "pandemic trio" of bluegrass singer Aoife O'Donovan and brothers Colin (violin) and Eric (cello) Jacobsen from Brooklyn, New York!

The performance will be live-streamed on our homepage (www.constellationsmusic.org) and Facebook page right at 3PM Eastern on Sunday, February 28. The artists will also be joining us for a live Q&A session and virtual reception immediately following the concert in Constellations' Zoom meeting room!  After the reception, the virtual concert will remain on our home page for 72 hours, and then will move to our online archives.
