    🎹✨ Step back in time with A Lady at the Virginals — ARTEK’s enchanting journey into 17th-century keyboard music on Friday, October 17 at 7:00 PM, in the beautiful Saint Ignatius of Antioch Episcopal Church. Let virtuoso keyboardist Gwendolyn Toth transport you through an exquisite program of virginals, muselar, regal, lautenwerk, and Italian harpsichord music — featuring Byrd, Bull, Gibbons, Sweelinck & more — in a performance rich with color, nuance, and historical splendor.

    ✨ Our Groupmuse Nights Out program makes a limited number of discounted tickets available to our community members! 🎫 Don’t miss your chance to hear this masterful exploration of early keyboard artistry up close — a wonder for early music lovers, curious newcomers, and anyone who delights in beautiful soundscapes. Reserve your spot and get ready for a magical evening!
