You are cordially invited to join us in Genoa for an afternoon of intimate music making, delightful hors d'oeuvres, and charming conversation while enjoying the captivating performance of Elizabeth Pitcairn and the Red Violin.

All proceeds and donations (tax-deductible) will directly fund Tahoe Symphony's current season, including numerous special projects in celebration of our 20th anniversary. We hope you can join us for a wonderful afternoon and become a part of the Tahoe Symphony family!
About our soireés
A soirée, from the French, is an elegant evening gathering (soir = evening). The Tahoe Symphony has soirées generally in the mid to late afternoon. (Not quite as elegant, but more convenient.) Our soirées are built around vocal and instrumental music. This carries on a tradition going back centuries. They are held either in a private home or at a club. Typically, twenty to forty people attend. Guests are treated to marvelous light food and beverages.
Members of the Chorus perform solos and duets. These are usually accompanied by piano. Instrumental works are also common and may feature members of our young artist program. In most cases, the featured presentation is the soloist performing in the current concert series. For the audience, these performances are a unique opportunity to experience such music at very close range.
