house concert
Parlor musical performance
A house concert is a musical performance held in a private home rather than a public venue.
The setting is typically intimate, with audiences of a few dozen people seated in living rooms or backyards.
House concerts often feature folk, acoustic, or singer-songwriter acts, and attendees usually contribute a suggested donation that goes directly to the performer: We're hosting a house concert Saturday—bring a chair.
