A Far Cry presents: Schubert Octet

Boston’s Grammy-nominated string orchestra invites you to come in from the cold and join us for Schubert’s radiant Octet and a festive post-concert gathering—an afternoon of music, warmth, and togetherness this December.

Musical Program

Franz Schubert | Octet in F major

The holidays are a time to come together—and this December, we invite you to do just that. At the heart of this concert is Schubert’s Octet, a generous, joyful work that feels like chamber music stretched to its fullest embrace: eight musicians in deep conversation, trading melodies, sharing space, and weaving together something greater than the sum of its parts.

We offer this performance as a moment to slow down, reconnect, and experience music together. And after the final notes fade, we hope you’ll stay for a warm reception—an extension of the gathering, where listeners and performers can meet, mingle, and share the season.

Come in from the cold. There’s a seat for you here.
