Many great musicians and other artists have appeared at the Bruno Walter, including James Levine, Renata Scotto, Elliott Carter, Pete Seeger, Bobby Short, Suzanne Farrell, and members of the Met Opera and NY Philharmonic, to name a few, so we are happy to have been invited to perform in this venue.
