The Butler School of Music’s Box Office is offering two Season Subscription options this year that give subscribers 50% off ticket purchases. In addition to subscriptions, the Butler School is featuring a number of special performances in the 2015–16 season, for which individual tickets can be purchased.

Ticket proceeds directly feed the Butler School’s programs in a number of ways: student-staff wages, equipment upgrades (such as music stands, risers and choral shells), opera sets and costumes, guest artist residencies and a host of other projects. While the Butler School’s students, faculty and guest art-ists provide a plethora of high-quality performances to the UT community and the Austin public for free, we hope you will consider purchasing tickets for our top tier performances to help support the busy musical ecosystem in our building. By offering these packages, we hope to provide affordable options for a diverse musical experience with our world-class artists.
