The third concert of our 18th season offers a rare opportunity to experience live performances of works by Frank Bridge, Ernst von Dohnányi, and Johannes Brahms, showcasing music that embodies deep emotional expression and rich, nuanced harmonies.

Close Encounters is Heights Arts’ signature Sunday afternoon chamber music series, and this concert in this season's series features performers Daniel Overly (piano), Jason Yu (violin), William Bender (viola), Dane Johansen (cello).

These intimate Sunday afternoon concerts, curated by Cleveland Orchestra cellist Dane Johansen, are performed by some of the world's most renowned musicians.
