A New Home for Events

After years of presenting memorable musical events at Darnton & Hersh, we are excited to announce that future events will be under the auspices of Guarneri Hall NFP, a new not-for-profit classical music incubator whose home is a newly constructed, acoustically engineered and technologically advanced 85-seat performance space on the third floor at 11 East Adams in Chicago's Loop. Guarneri Hall NFP serves as a facilitator and catalyst for emerging musical artists, musical groups and music education initiatives.

The archive of past Darnton & Hersh events will remain on this website.

Events at D&H

Concerts and other events that formerly would have been held in the Darnton & Hersh Salon are now under the auspices of a new not-for-profit music incubator organization, Guarneri Hall NFP. Guarneri Hall is located on the third floor of the same building where Darnton & Hersh is located, in Chicago's Loop.
