Las Alturas House Concerts
http://houseconcerts.wordpress.com
House concerts are just what the words suggest: a concert in a house. More accurately, they are really concerts in a home, since the word house doesn’t convey the sense of warmth and welcome that house concerts are about. House concerts are magical for both the musicians and the listeners.Everyone is in the living room together, up close and personal, the musicians to play and the audience to listen. Our home is in the Las Alturas neighborhood of Las Cruces, New Mexico. Our shows feature acoustic musicians performing folk, traditional, bluegrass, blues, jazz and occasionally classical music. This blog is devoted to announcements of our house concerts.
