Season tickets on sale! Purchase online now

President's Message

We want to thank all of you – audience, members, and sponsors – for your support this past season.

For our upcoming season, we have added more ways to serve you better. We offer substantial savings for advance online ticket purchase, and at all times online tickets will cost less than at-venue. And as some of you have discovered, if your plans change, we expeditiously refund online tickets – no questions asked.

Member support is important to the society, so, to encourage membership, we are expanding bene!ts. First, free admission to the Guitar Foundation of America concert, which this year will feature the phenomenal Russian virtuoso Rovshan Mamedkuliev! Second, members are invited to attend all master classes free. These are exciting events offering fascinating musical and performance insights.

Our new season kicks off with the great Roland Dyens. Don’t miss the fun. Lock in your advance purchase, online discounts, become a member and enjoy the free admission to the GFA concert.

.

Looking forward to meeting you at our next event,
