A Toast to Texas with Here Nor There
September 13, 2025 , 7:30 pm – 11:00 pm

Join Ensemble ATX and Here Nor There in a celebratory opening night of music, craft cocktails, and community—capped by an intimate afterparty at Austin’s hidden speakeasy. Performed by a powerhouse ensemble of internationally acclaimed artists, the program explores chamber music from Schubert to Elgar. The evening features Lone Star Living—Here Nor There’s recently released cocktail menu celebrating Texas. Following the performance, join an exclusive afterparty with the musicians at Here Nor There’s hidden downtown location — an opportunity to connect over conversation, cocktails, and shared experience.
“As we launch our third season, and Here Nor There begins their 8th year, we want to collectively thank our beautiful community that supported and shaped our histories. To us, there is no place on earth quite like Austin, and Texas more broadly. The energy, passion, weirdness, the international influences and local histories, and the blend of old and new, make our community one of a kind. We warmly toast to Texas and all of you that have joined us on our journeys, and all of you who will become part of our future!” – Geoff and Anna
