Several venues throughout the county will host scaled down versions of Butler County Symphony Orchestra shows in January and beyond.

The first two shows are this weekend: 3 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 4, at the Butler Art Center & Gallery, and at 3 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 5, at the Evans City Public Library.

The Butler County Symphony Orchestra’s Chamber Music Series was created to kick off the association’s regular season by showcasing its musicians’ talents in a new light. These concerts feature preset programs performed by area musicians in smaller ensembles.
