Discovery Time with McGill is a free, informal strings session in Montreal, held as part of Off Bach 2026 at the Off-Festival Bach. On December 2, 2026, McGill students share the stage with the violinist Elizaveta Miller, so the evening sits somewhere between a student recital and a conversation with a working musician.
What the visit is like
The session is described as informal, which suggests a relaxed room rather than a formal concert programme. It is a good fit for visitors who enjoy hearing music close up and who like to see young players alongside an experienced artist.

Planning your evening
Because no reservation is needed, you can arrive without booking ahead, though it is worth checking the event page for any updates before you set out. Montreal is a city of many neighbourhoods, and an evening of strings can easily be paired with a meal or a walk nearby. The full programme and details are on the festival's concert page for this event.
