Just to let folks know that we have changed venues! In other words, we are selling our Cloverdale house and have bought another house in Eugene close to the University of Oregon. We will be hosting more house concerts there. If you'd like to be included in our next event - a house concert for a folksinger, songwriter and banjo player called the Littlest Birds - please let us know so we can include you on the invitation list.

Please come join us for this fundraising dinner with live music! All proceeds will benefit Oregon Mozart Players, an important non-profit that promotes music in our community and music education for children.

Reserve your seat now! Back by popular demand, our Moroccan-inspired feast and private house concert returns for a second year. Last year’s sold-out event received high raves, so we’ve moved to a new, more spacious riverfront location this year. The culinary talents of a former resident of Morocco will delight your taste buds in this multi-course, vegetarian feast. After dinner, sit back and be entertained by OMP’s cello quartet, Cellophoria. Tickets for this limited-seating, all-inclusive night of wine, dinner, dessert. and live music: $80. Private message or call now for tickets: (541) 345-6648!

Save the Date - September 27 - 5:30 p.m.

We are very excited to welcome Johnny Gandelsman to Eugene for a house concert. You may have caught him last year at Beall Hall as part of the string quartet Brooklyn Rider, or heard him as part of Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble. We hope that you'll join us to hear him play all six Bach sonatas and partitas on violin in a beautiful and intimate setting.

$40 per person - please contact us for a ticket.

More about Johnny: Violinist Johnny Gandelsman’s singular musical voice comes from the spirit of collaboration. As a member of Yo-Yo Ma’s Silk Road Ensemble and the string quartet Brooklyn Rider, he has distilled the creative sensibilities of a wide range of master musicians from around the world. In Boston last January, Gandelsman returned to the classical repertoire with a pop-up, unadvertised recital at MIT, performing Bach’s Complete Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin to a small but packed house. Lloyd Schwartz, describing the event on NPR’s Fresh Air, said, “I’ve heard some famous violinists attempt this epic feat, but none of them gripped me and delighted me as thoroughly as Gandelsman.” Gandelsman now brings his powerful interpretation of these landmark works to Oregon.
