Framing American Democracy

Experience the extraordinary sounds of chamber music in the beautiful and vibrant setting of The Wadsworth under the artistic direction of HSO Concertmaster Leonid Sigal and featuring Hartford Symphony Orchestra musicians. Concerts are presented in collaboration with The Wadsworth’s special exhibitions and permanent collections.

Members of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra perform chamber works by American composers reflecting on the 250^th anniversary of the founding of the United States. Join us in the galleries before the performance for a gallery talk presenting highlights from the museum’s American art collection, including important works by one of Hartford’s celebrated painters Frederic Edwin Church.
