Described as one of the “most evocative” and “intimate” spaces for classical music, The Crypt Sessions has presented a variety of performances from contemporary opera, jazz and spoken words, two pianos, string quartet, gospel music, to solo recitals featuring traditional repertoire such as Bach's Goldberg Variations and Complete Cello Suites.
