Two Tickets to “Romance and Rhythm” or “An English Christmas,” Performed by Camerata San Antonio. Six Options Available.

Like cheese, classical music is best enjoyed when in string form. Snack on the sounds of cultured compositions with today’s GrouponLive deal: for $20, you get two general-admission tickets to a concert performed by Camerata San Antonio (a $40 value). Choose from the following concerts: “Romance and Rhythm,” at the following times and venues: Thursday, October 20, at 7:30 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church in Kerrville Friday, October 21, at 7:30 p.m. at First United Methodist Church in Boerne Sunday, October 23, at 3 p.m. at Christ Episcopal Church in San Antonio “An English Christmas,” at the following times and venues: Thursday, December 8, at 7:30 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church in Kerrville Friday, December 9, at 7:30 p.m. at First United Methodist Church in Boerne Sunday, December 11, at 3 p.m. at Christ Episcopal Church in San Antonio Founded by intrepid players from the San Antonio Symphony, Camerata San Antonio’s talented band of performers crafts ear-tickling small-ensemble programs of modern and classical chamber music. Employing a string quartet balanced with the precision of a professional seesawer, “Romance and Rhythm” explores the shimmering melodies of 19th- and 20th-century composers Turina, Ginastera, and Grieg. Alternatively, “An English Christmas” bolsters violins, viola, and cello with the recorder-playing talents of Martha Fabrique and the narration of Deirdre Saravia to present a cycle of yuletide euphonies culled from Great Britain, including a sonic rendition of “A Christmas Carol.” Both concerts take place in three different high-eaved churches throughout the San Antonio area, giving sixty-fourth notes enough space to float out of their instruments before galloping out the building in blind panic. Though Camerata San Antonio offers $8 tickets for full-time students with ID, this Groupon still offers the best deal available for most buyers.
