Music for Food

In 2010, moved by reports that poverty and hunger have risen in the current Recession, a group of New England Conservatory artist faculty, students and alumni, headed by violist Kim Kashkashian united to present a chamber music concert series to benefit The Greater Boston Food Bank. "Price of admission" to the concerts was a donation of non-perishable food items or a check to the GBFB. 
Tonight Music For Food returns to launch their second series of concerts. Join the fight against hunger and hear some of Boston's finest musicians. Instead of a ticket, bring a food or monetary donation for the Greater Boston Food Bank.
