PSO Field Trips: Our Earth

Come to the farm-to-table Throwback Brewery and enjoy a complimentary beer as part of your ticket to this unique event. The Portsmouth Symphony's Field Trip series is exploring how humanity inhabits this earth in a series of four performances. After a discussion about climate change by Barry N. Rock, Professor Emeritus, Department of Natural Resources and the Environment, performers from the Portsmouth Symphony's string section will explore chamber music that embraces our connection with the earth, and reminds us that we are its caretakers.
