Letter from the President



Dear Friends of Houston Early Music,

Among the many compliments we keep hearing from you is that no other organization presents the groups and music that we consistently bring to Houston from all over the country and all over the world. As a patron said at our last concert, “you can’t hear this kind of music anywhere else in Houston.” Not only do we bring these groups to you at our concerts, we continue our educational outreach in the community, bringing the groups to underprivileged children as well as providing master classes to local college students. We have every right to be proud of the organization, and are hopeful that more patrons of the arts will hear of our world-class concerts and artists and spread the word, especially during these economically challenging times.
