Homestead Series 2025

About
Experience Music in Remarkable Places
Join us for an enchanting afternoon of fine chamber music as NECOM’s acclaimed musicians and guest artists perform in some of New England’s most beautiful historic properties.
Each concert in the Homestead Series pairs exquisite music with the timeless charm of historic rural architecture. Following the performance, guests will enjoy wine and refreshments whilst mingling with the musicians and owners of this historic property.
The Homestead Concert Series is more than just an afternoon of beautiful music—it’s a vital fundraising initiative. Proceeds help bring high-quality music education to small and remote schools across the New England region—programs that would otherwise be out of reach for these communities.
