Essex Winter Series 2025 Season

February 23 @ 3:00 pm - May 4 @ 3:00 pm

$45

February 23, 2025 at Old Saybrook High School: The second EWS concert, our annual Stu Ingersoll Jazz Concert, offers hot music of the 1920s and 1930s dished up by the internationally celebrated musicians that comprise Jeff Barnhart’s Essex Eight. While this octet has never appeared anywhere prior to appearing on our EWS stage, you’ll marvel at the synergy that makes the group sound as if they’ve been performing together for decades!

March 9, 2025 at Congregation Beth Shalom (Chester, CT): Our third EWS concert brings the award-winning Terra String Quartet to grace our stage. This phenomenal group of young artists – Harriet Langley (violin), Amelia Dietrich (violin), Chih-Ta Cheng (viola) and Audrey Chen (cello) – have chosen to perform selections from Haydn, Ravel and Beethoven.

April 6, 2025 at Valley Regional High School: The EWS season closes with a gathering of eight EWS Emerging Artist alumni who will join incoming Artistic Director and flutist Tara Helen O’Connor to celebrate retiring Artistic Director Mihae Lee’s 15 years of beautiful music and community outreach with Essex Winter Series.

Concerts begin at 3 pm and are general admission. Adult tickets are $45; Student tickets are only $5. For tickets visit www.essexwinterseries.com or call 860-272-4572. For all our venues, parking, entry and seating accessibility is available.

Mehler CFP LLC, and Tower Laboratories. Masonicare at Chester Village is a piano sponsor and WSHU is the media sponsor.
