Niesa Patton, Director of Development: The first season of Inside the Music was wildly popular! Audiences really like to learn more about classical music in this relaxed setting. Andrew Grams is a master at sharing his enthusiasm and you leave wanting to know more! I recommend this event because it introduces new audiences to great music, but there is something for long-time classical music lovers to learn as well.
