The Betsy Hotel in Miami Beach’s Art Deco Historic District will set the scene for a series of live classical music events in partnership with the Miami Beach Classical Music Festival (MMF) this month. All events are free and open to the public.
The Betsy will host the return of its popular Opera on the Terrace series, a chamber music concert featuring MMF student musicians, several Sunday sunset concerts in Lummus Park, and musical master classes led by guest presenters.
Now in its eleventh year, the partnership between The Betsy and MMF continues to create opportunities for the next generation of musicians while making classical music more accessible to the community.
The public is invited to enjoy various performances, including:
