Guarneri Hall launches its 2025-26 concert season with Re:newal, the 8th Annual NEXUS Chamber Music Festival. Join us to renew and refresh your spirits through a series of three concerts that connect two world premieres with a selection of underperformed treasures from the past.
NEXUS Chamber Music is the ensemble-in-residence at Guarneri Hall. Led by Co-Artistic Directors Alexander Hersh and Brian Hong, NEXUS are driven to create unique and engaging experiences that make classical music relevant to an ever-broadening audience.
Re:construct opens the festival with a Guarneri Hall program celebrating composers who were also distinguished performers, featuring works by cellist Luigi Boccherini, violinist Fritz Kreisler, and a brand-new violin and cello duo by cellist-composer Paul Wiancko, commissioned by NEXUS especially for this event.
