report as inappropriatewonderful venue and wonderful music. it was a first time experience for us and we will be doing it again.
report as inappropriateWent with my 12 year old who really enjoyed the music and a chance to talk with one of the musicians afterwards. Parked on Summit and had a nice wintery walk to the Hill House.
report as inappropriatePerfect intimate venue for this type of concert. Hard to go wrong with Bach and Mendelssohn. The musicians obviously had great personal affection for the pieces they presented. It was a treat to hear the harpsichord.
Lack of parking (confirmation at the Cathedral) compounded by heavy, wet snow was a drag, but not their fault.
