Inside the Classics is a Minnesota Orchestra concert series that explores great musical works through performances and enlightening conversation. The programs for this series are designed by Orchestra violist Sam Bergman and Principal Conductor of Live at Orchestra Hall Sarah Hicks. Love That Dare Not Speak looks back through musical history at LGBTQ composers, musicians and others who ignored social conventions of their times and made a lasting impact on classical music. Inside the Classics concerts include a pre-concert happy hour, local craft brews and an opportunity to meet musicians after the performance.

Tickets: $20 to $50
