The Ovation Series

The Ovation Series is a curated calendar of opportunities for Members, Subscribers, and Passport Holders to dig deeper into your musical experiences. Open rehearsals are intimate, unscripted glimpses into the artistry as it takes shape, granting access rarely offered to anyone but the musicians. Meet the BSO takes you backstage (and sometimes onstage) to have your burning questions answered by amazing BSO musicians. Chamber Music Interludes place exceptional musicians in unexpected venues throughout Baltimore and Montgomery Counties for a truly unique concert experience.

$10 donation per ticket.

Members enjoy a select number of free passes per Ovation event.
