Coming to Third Thursdays at Transformer Station on July 18th is Opus 216 – Northeast Ohio’s high-level performing independent, string-based ensemble.

This Third Thursdays is hosted by Ideastream Public Media’s Bill O’Connell (host of Dinner Classics and producer at WCLV), who leads an in-depth interview with Cleveland-based ensemble Opus 216. While classically trained, Opus 216 remains unbound by genre, dipping into jazz, folk, Irish fiddle, original music, and creative covers of modern iconic songs.

It’s an evening of musical performances and conversations you don’t want to miss.

In collaboration with the Cleveland Museum of Art, this free event is happening on July 18th at 7:00 p.m. at the Transformer Station. Register here.

This event will be recorded for Ideastream’s Shuffle podcast – Northeast Ohio’s backstage pass to the region’s independent music scene.
