Pre-concert lectures are given before each International
Series concert. They begin one
hour before the concert begins, at the location of that evening's concert.
Pre-concert lectures are open to all ticket holders for that performance.
The Northwest Center for Early
Music Studies (NWCEMS) offers a variety of classes, ensembles, and workshops
for people interested in Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque music. NWCEMS is a
branch of the Early Music Guild, which also provides a limited number of tuition
scholarships.

Early music makes an excellent focus for educational explorations. It is a
window on history, a living link to the cultures of the past.
As a service to the educational community, the Early Music Guild offers a
variety of programs -- from 30-minute presentations to two-week residencies --
appropriate for ages ranging from elementary school through community college.
Most programs can be tailored to a particular age level. Costs varies with the
specific program and the grants available to support it. Range is from $50 to
$2000 (for a 2-week residency). The Early Music Guild pays one-half of the
cost of most of these programs. For more information about available
school programs, call the Early Music Guild at (206) 325-7066.
