Opus Concert Series Returns with Streamed Concerts
The Opus Concert Series will return for its 2020-2021 season beginning November 29. Creative Greensboro, the City’s office of arts and culture, will broadcast its fall concerts Sunday evenings at 6 pm from November 29 through December 20 on Creative Greensboro’s Facebook page.
A Facebook account is not required to watch the concerts. The concerts range from classical and holiday favorites to tango and R&B. They feature small groups of musicians from two City-sponsored community music ensembles, Philharmonia of Greensboro and Greensboro Concert Band, and guest artists including Lorena Guillen Tango Ensemble and Sheila Star Productions.
“Greensboro loves live music – and though we still are unable to return to typical in-person music events, we are pleased to affirm our commitment to this free concert series and to the members of our creative community who help bring it to life,” said Greensboro’s Chief Creative Economy Officer Ryan Deal. “More than 175,000 viewers tuned in to enjoy our virtual MUSEP concert series this summer. We are excited to continue with virtual offerings this fall and winter. The guest artists – a first for the Opus Series – will help the series reflect the varied musical interests of our community.”
