Dear Friends,

I am thrilled to host the 13th year of the Grinberg Classical Salon Series on New York’s Upper West Side – a one-of-a-kind, intimate salon concerts in revival of the old and elegant European tradition of Hausmusik. This Summer & Fall 2025 season will feature a total of nine thematic programs, including both beloved masterworks by J. S. Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Liszt, and Brahms, as well as lesser-known gems by Johann Nepomuk Hummel, Ferdinand Ries, Carl Czerny, Fanny Mendelssohn, Louise Farrenc, and Carl Reinecke. The Fall Season will open with J. S. Bach’s magnificent Six Sonatas for violin and keyboard on September 21/24, and will conclude with the not-to-be-missed BEWITCHED BY BEETHOVEN Season Finale on December 14/17, which will feature Ludwig van Beethoven’s dark and dramatic Piano Trio No. 3 in C minor, op. 1, and Ignaz Moscheles’s bold and brilliant Piano Trio in C minor, op. 84, inspired by Beethoven. To learn more about the upcoming Summer & Fall 2025 Season, scroll down below.

Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Warm wishes,

Dr. Yelena Grinberg, the artistic director and founder of Grinberg Classical Salon Series
