Encore Live · Watch on demand
When travel paused in 2020 and 2021, Encore brought its tour managers, musicians, historians, and destination experts online. The complete Encore Live series remains here as a free on-demand library of musical storytelling and firsthand destination knowledge.
These webinars capture a unique moment when travel paused. Some logistical references reflect 2020 and 2021, but the destination expertise and musical storytelling remain valuable today.
