About the Concert

There is no event quite like it …our Grand Finale is an extraordinary evening of music and community as our final concert of the season represents an all-star gathering of our faculty and every one of our Heifetz Institute students in a rousing concert brimming with fire, passion, and virtuosity. It’s then followed by our Farewell Toast, where students, faculty, and audience members raise a glass together for a poignant and uniquely Staunton summer ritual.
