Due to COVID-19 and the social distancing measures put in place, Cleveland and its thriving art scene have been put on hold. To help address this, Piano Cleveland is launching The Quarantine Concerts, a weekly concert series that brings meaningful live performances straight into your own home.

These concerts feature Cleveland's local artists, many of whom are dealing with severe financial repercussions from lost performances in the current climate. Audience members have the opportunity to offer their support directly to these artists by donating to Piano Cleveland's Musicians’ Fund.

Performances will be every Thursday evening at 7:30 pm. To watch, visit the homepage at pianocleveland.org and the concert will be waiting for you!

The livestream will take place at 4:30pm (Pacific) / 7:30pm (Eastern).

Watch the livestream here: https://www.pianocleveland.org/

Note: Livestream concerts are subject to change without notice. If the livestream doesn't take place, we hope you'll visit the performers' website to explore their recorded performances, or discover another group to listen to online!
