Dear Friends,
A decade! VIVO was born out of three Columbus-raised friends’ modest desire to generate further excitement for chamber music in the community every summer. Chamber music is a genre of classical music comprised of small ensembles so its inherent malleability has allowed VIVO to take its concert experiences anywhere - from a concert in complete darkness in the Short North… to a mobile, outdoor concert in Schiller Park during the pandemic… to partnerships with local breweries for informal, interactive concerts.
Thanks to our fans, supporters and the renowned guest artists who travel far and wide to join us in Columbus, VIVO only continues to grow. Our 501(c)3 organization brings intimate and engaging performances to those who may not typically get access and our artists engage in educational outreach with the youth in the Greater Columbus area.
VIVO celebrates the “Us” in Columbus - we hope to see YOU at one of our events during our 10th birthday week this summer!
