CONCERT GUIDE
2015 | 2016 Season
Dear CIM Concert Enthusiast;
It gives me great pleasure to invite all of Northeast Ohio to another exciting season of
performance events at the Cleveland Institute of Music.
CIM again presents an eclectic offering of concerts, events and masterclasses – nearly all
free to the community. This year we are honored to participate in the community-wide
partnership that brings the Violins of Hope to Cleveland and includes a series of CIM
concerts featuring repertoire reflecting the strength of the Jewish people and presented on
stringed instruments that survived the Holocaust. The series includes a special CIM concert
at Severance Hall for the community, Music of the Violins of Hope, featuring the Cleveland
Institute of Music Orchestra led by Maestro Yoel Levi. I hope you will plan to attend this
inspirational concert on October 14 at 8pm in Severance Hall.
The 2015-16 Season also features more than 20 recitals performed by our world-renowned
faculty and includes new works by our own Head of Composition, Keith Fitch. I’m thrilled
to announce that Maestro Jahja Ling will be our Distinguished Principal Guest Artist this
year, leading the CIM Orchestra in two concerts this spring, including the Symphony No.1
by Gustav Mahler.
Please take a moment to look through our Concert Guide and make your
plans to experience the power and majesty of classical music through the
inspirational performances of CIM’s faculty, students and guest artists.
Best wishes,

CIM: A DESTINATION
CIM is located at the heart of University Circle, Cleveland’s cultural hub.
Forbes Magazine named University Circle one of “America’s Top 10 Prettiest
Neighborhoods,” citing the area’s bounty of museums and institutes of higher learning,
including the Cleveland Institute of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland
Botanical Garden, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, the Western Reserve
Historical Society and Severance Hall.
PERFORMANCE VENUES
• cim.edu/calendar
1. Mixon Hall: a state-of-the-art 235-seat chamber hall designed for solo
recitals and chamber music. The hall, opened in 2007, has quickly become a
national favorite for its intimacy and excellent acoustics.
54
2. Kulas Hall: a 535-seat performance space featuring a main stage large
enough to accommodate the CIM Orchestra or a fully staged opera.

Groups: Groups are welcome. To
make arrangements, call the Concerts &
Events Office.

Concert Start Times: Halls open
30 minutes before the concert is
scheduled to begin. All concerts begin
promptly at the designated time.
To ensure the enjoyment of all our
patrons, and in deference to the artists,
latecomers are admitted only at the
discretion of the House Manager. The
television screen in Pogue Lobby streams
each concert, so you can still enjoy the
performance until you are seated.
Subject to Change: All programs,
artists and venues are subject to change
without notice. In the event of a last
minute cancellation, every attempt is
made to inform the public via cim.edu
and social media channels. Current
concert information is available at
cim.edu or by calling 216.791.5000.
