Welcome to Melodic Light!
We are professional, classically trained musicians presenting fresh and inspired performances of both standard repertoire and new compositions. It is our mission to bring excellent classical music performances to our local community, including to audiences who may not normally have access to these kinds of performances. We present concerts in a wide variety of venues- some traditional, some not. We believe that the location of the performances has a huge impact on the overall experience, and therefore we strive to select beautiful and unique spaces in which to present our music.
