The Family Band
April 18 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
$10 – $20Lyracle’s Spring 2026 concert brings you intimate 400 year-old music that connects the 17th and 21st centuries through a theme that’s still as much a part of life today as it was back then: family relationships. In The Family Band, Lyracle imagines a musical afternoon in a fairy-tale worthy German castle spent with the immensely talented Sophie Elisabeth, August II, and their six children. Join us to explore the role that music played in one family’s learning from and caring for each other through a program featuring compositions that they collaborated on together.
A Community Sing & Play will immediately follow the concert for those who wish to participate. Stick around for tea and cookies and join the Lyracle musicians to sing/play through a few short pieces composed during Sophie Elisabeth’s lifetime. All voices, instruments, and levels welcome.
