The concept is to bring together travel storytelling and classical music in an intimate concert setting, blending art, culture, and discovery. Each evening is hosted in collaboration with partners in travel who share insights and inspiration for cultural and luxury journeys. Guests will be introduced to unique travel experiences through DeSalvio Travel, a Virtuoso affiliated agency, and will receive exclusive Virtuoso perks and offers available only at this event.

 The evening will be co-hosted by Robert Poortinga, acclaimed European pianist, who will not only perform a specially curated program inspired by destinations along Europe’s great rivers and cultural capitals, but will also share fascinating insights into the history of travel among composers in the 18th and 19th centuries – how journeys through Europe influenced their lives, ideas, and music. The program includes works by Debussy, Chopin, Liszt, Brahms, and Strauss, each chosen to reflect the distinct character and atmosphere of the regions that inspired them.

 These evenings create a space where people who love music, art, and travel can connect personally, discovering destinations through sound and story.

The event is free to attend, and guests must RSVP HERE
