SONATA SATURDAYS bring small groups of New Bedford Symphony Orchestra musicians to downtown businesses for casual, but intimate musical performances.

These free events are now in their fifth season. What originally began as a pandemic-era collaboration between the symphony and The Drawing Room has now expanded to bring musicians to more local businesses. 

Concerts take place on the 4th Saturday of the month, June-August, with performances at 4:00PM and repeating at 5:00PM.

Sonata Saturdays are free, but you are encouraged to RSVP as seating is limited.
