The Persistence of Creativity

CityMusic Cleveland Chamber Orchestra

CityMusic is proud and honored to present with the following major cultural and educational partners programs centered around the production of Brundibár: Cinematique at the Cleveland Institute, at the Cleveland Institute of Art, Cleveland Public Libraries, Facing History and Ourselves, Lakewood Public Library, Maltz Museum, and WKSU.
