2026-27 Concerts

Please note: concert venue will be the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Grass Valley or as otherwise noted until we are able to move into our new Hardin Hall at Crown Point Venues.
This season is one of exciting transitions for InConcert Sierra as we construct a new facility for our concerts, as well as an economic and artistic asset for the region.
We seek your understanding as we move through this transitional phase!

Valencia Baryton Project
The Valencia Baryton Project performs music written for an ancient and little-known instrument, the baryton—a cross between the viol da gamba and lirone. Founded by Matthew Baker—one of only a handful of baryton performers worldwide—the Project brings a new dimension to the traditional string trio using baryton, viola, and violoncello, for which Haydn wrote 123 works, alongside music by composers past and present.
