Music Before 1800 keeps its ticket prices reasonable and offers generous discounts to subscribers. As a result, ticket sales account for less than half of our income. We depend on contributions. Donors who contribute a total of $100 or more will be recognized in all our programs for one year. All programs are subject to change.

Our contribution levels: Trustee ($5,000+), Guarantor ($2,500+), Sustaining Contributor ($1,000+), Benefactor ($500+), Sponsor ($250+), Patron ($150+), Friend ($100+), Other.

Volunteer

Music Before 1800 relies on a wonderful group of volunteer front-of-house personnel to ensure a successful season. Volunteering with Music Before 1800 is a rewarding opportunity to learn about, experience and become a part of New York City’s longest running early music concert series. Volunteers receive a complimentary seat for the afternoon/evening and will join the ranks of a warm and committed group of people, while supporting our mission of presenting quality programming by some of today’s most skillful and dynamic performers.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please write to our Concert Manager at concertmanager@mb1800.org for more details. Be sure to tell us a little about yourself (including any relevant skills or experience), as well as your availability for the current season if possible. We ask that volunteers donate their time for at least two performances.
