Be Well Be Strong Be Brave B Live Budapest Basel Bozeman Bloomington the Berkshires Brooklyn

Skip across time zones in a series of six short concert films followed by live Q&A’s with the artists.

 

A baroque Hungarian palace hosts music from the Carpathian Basin and a Bach violin sonata graces a Montana mountaintop. Dutch treats sweeten a New Amsterdam house in Brooklyn, while a stately viol concert animates the stones of a medieval Basel sanctuary. An English titan of the lute brings forth rarities in Bloomington, while gems of the English Renaissance ring through the foothills of the Berkshires.

 

A testament to early music’s fortitude in the face of challenging times and technical leaps, B Live unites six unique locations and over 25 outstanding musicians in an online series like no other. Both subscription and individual ticket purchase options are available. All concert premieres will be followed by a live Q&A with the artists and Salon/Sanctuary Artistic Director Jessica Gould

 

All concerts premiere at 3pm EST and will run for a week. Each concert lasts one half hour. With one ticket purchase you can watch as many times as you like for the entire week run of the concert.
