Apocryphonia

Read Profile

Apocryphonia ventures beyond the standard fare of traditional classical music programming to reveal the beautiful, the lost, and the rare in a rather unpretentious and enjoyable manner.

Its mission: to seek out and share hidden and obscure musical masterpieces, either from composers you may not know, or rare works by familiar names.

Apocryphonia’s concerts are the best chance to discover your new favourite pieces by your new favourite composers.
