About this concert
This is a free concert with a suggested donation of $25 per ticket. Proceeds go towards the continued sharing of music and story outside the concert hall and in places of shelter.
Co-sponsored by Shelter Music Boston and Community Church of Boston, a concert of powerful, aching, ageless, and ever-charged folk songs performed by voice and string quartet. We celebrate and raise awareness of the great work Shelter Music Boston does to bring music, conversation and joy to people experiencing housing insecurity and substance use disorder.
This Thursday evening concert is anchored by powerhouse vocalist / composer / arranger, Moira Smiley and her dazzling arrangements for voice (and sometimes banjo, piano or accordion) plus string quartet that comprise her new album, The Rhizome Project. The quartet brings together four of Boston’s most innovative and respected string players; Lysander Jaffe, Lizzy Cook, Annegret Klaua, and Yonah Zur.

Shelter Music Boston delivers monthly chamber music concerts to Greater Boston homeless shelters and substance misuse recovery centers, providing classical music as a social service. Every note invests in the capacity of classical music to create social change in environments of great need. We believe all people deserve access to the dignity, creativity, and passion of classical music.
