NCMA’s Celebration Series: Michael Houstoun

Nelson Centre of Musical Arts proudly presents Michael Houstoun as part of their Autumn/Winter 2019 Celebration Series.

After almost 50 years as a professional musician Michael Houstoun has decided to retire, hang up his fingers, call it quits and begin a new phase of his fortunate life. Although he doesn't have an exact date yet his last performance for the paying public will be towards the end of 2020.

Make sure you don't miss Michael Houstoun's last concert in Nelson which is part of NCMA's Celebration Series. The Celebration Series is a new season of concerts produced by NCMA over the autumn and winter months.

The concerts will be the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Audience members will be able to relax and enjoy performances featuring wonderful local and national musicians including Michael Houstoun, the NCMA Chamber Orchestra featuring Donald Armstrong and more.
