2020-2021
"Virtual" Season
​
As we navigate a new normal, Ensemble Lyrae explores how we can connect to our audiences in a safe way, whether through virtual events and forums, socially distant concerts, or simply sharing some of our most beloved music through archived recordings.
​
We know that the power of music reaches beyond the limitations we currently face. We know that there will always be a place for finding peace, comfort and inspiration in beautiful music, meaningful messages and thoughtful words.
The DL with EL Series
​
​
​
The Down-Low with Ensemble Lyrae Series,
(dubbed the "The DL with EL"), will be a set of live, virtual chats in which we hope to connect more deeply in conversation with our audiences about our own experiences and theirs.
