Me2/ (“me, too”) is the world’s only classical music organization for musicians living with mental illness and the people who support them. Join music director and conductor Ronald Braunstein, who lives with bipolar disorder, as he leads an orchestra of nearly 100 Me2/ musicians in works by Yousufi, Grieg, Rossini, Berlioz, Elgar and Beethoven.

This free, hour-long event features both great music and testimonies from musicians living well with mental illness, and audience members are invited to participate in a lively Q&A session.

This performance marks Me2/’s 10th anniversary and features players from Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.

“Stigma-Free at Symphony Hall” is sponsored by McLean Hospital. It is supported by partner organizations Boston Symphony Orchestra, Mass Cultural Council, Austen Riggs Center, the Depression & Bipolar Support Alliance of Boston and Massachusetts Association for Mental Health.

Please note that all visitors to Symphony Hall must present either proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test to enter, and CDC-approved masks are required while in the hall. A negative COVID-19 test must either be a PCR test taken within the last 72 hours or an antigen test taken within the last 24 hours.
