Handel and Haydn Society Announces New Streaming Concerts

The Handel and Haydn Society announced it will offer five new streaming concerts throughout the fall featuring select H+H musicians performing works by Handel, Bach, Vivaldi, and more. The fall program has moved online following the July announcement of the closure of Symphony Hall through November. Each concert will be available free, with a suggested donation of $10, through the Handel and Haydn Society website at handelandhaydn.org/streaming-concerts/. Concerts will stream for registered listeners on Tuesdays at 3:00 PM ET. H+H season subscribers and donors over $100 will receive additional content and early access to all performances two days before the general public.
