Sunday Studio Series
|
Nestled just east of Cleveland’s University Circle is the historic Little Italy, an incredibly vibrant neighborhood for over a century and home to some of the best food you’ll ever taste!
Now for the first time ever, Little Italy has its very own, dedicated concert series. In partnership with Studio Espressivo, the Sunday Studio Series brings together world-class, local artists for live music at the Murray Hill Galleries. Inspired by the community and energy of Little Italy, pianist Allison Hillier and I have curated a second season that celebrates Italian heritage and influence in classical music.

Masquerading Melodies
