INTIMATE PERFORMANCES

Small audience sizes: Our company has always prioritized intimate concert settings. We expand our concerts not by getting larger concert halls, but by adding shows in the same venue our audiences have grown to love. This keeps the intimacy and organic electricity of live performances fresh and gripping. With audience demand for more concerts over the years, we purposefully expanded not to a larger concert hall.

INTERPERSONAL CONNECTION

Great insights: Our artists represent the cream of the crop. All artists have an incredible love for connecting with our audiences, for sharing stories and insights they've gleaned from the works you will enjoy.

Great peers: Connect with other ambitious and curious individuals in your community. Our audiences are friendly, explorative intellectually, open artistically, and come from all walks of life. Many have led or are leading incredible careers and stories. Lifelong friendships are made and maintained here.

INSIGHTFUL ARTISTRY

Our artists are regarded as the best in the field, with Grammy and JUNO Award winners, top prizes from the leading international music competitions, Lincoln Center Honors, Orders of Canada, etc. This season boasts artists like the Gryphon Trio, Attacca and Viano Quartets, Jon Kimura Parker... The list goes on!

Happy Hour is going to be one of the most riveting shows you've ever attended.

An exploration of blues, classical music, and indescribable intersections of beauty -- even if the music calls for spectral opposites of mood, from raucous energy to quiet reflection.

INDESCRIBABLE MUSIC

The music always leaves our audiences hungry for more: The night of conversation and networking is long; but meaningful music-making is presented in a concise and powerful 45-minute program with no intermission. Designed with variety, beauty, and rejuvenation in mind.

You will revisit the genius and familiar masterpieces of the classical repertoire, but also be introduced to incredible new music of today, flourishing at the intersection of classical, blues, rock, and hip hop. You will be intrigued as you discover music you hadn't heard before and stories behind it. Weaving some of the greatest examples of human musical ingenuity alongside other topics like industry, economics, travel, food, leisure, and technology, there's always something that keeps our audiences titillated.

INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE

Blow off steam from the work week. Refresh yourself with a drink and insightful conversation. Be transported by sounds otherworldly and familiar.

There's a reason why our Happy Hour experience can not be replicated.

Come see for yourself!

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU DIDN'T COME TO HAPPY HOUR?

Option 1: Do Nothing and Miss Out

Is FOMO real? Definitely if you're not coming to HAPPY HOUR. You might get dinner somewhere or go home — and it will likely be a forgettable evening — one in several thousand evenings. Have you ever gone to an event and THANKED YOURSELF for doing so? Because you never would have dreamed it could have been this good and you can't believe you were seriously about to pass up a life-changing experience because you didn't feel like something new?

Don't let this happen — come join us for Happy Hour!

Option 2: Book the Ticket and Thank Yourself

After a Happy Hour concert, you will be telling your friends (whether on iMessage or by the "cooler") about the Vancouver's best kept secret. We'd say more... but we'd prefer to let the event do the talking!

See you there!
