【疑难长句】

CCM organizes a variety of events, including performances by the well-known La Salle Quartet, CCM's Philharmonic Orchestra, and various groups of musicians presenting baroque through modern music.

including performances by…music是现在分词结构，做events的定语，相当于 CCM organizes a variety of events, which include performances by…music。presenting baroque through modern music也是现在分词结构，修饰musicians。

（参考译文）CCM组织了很多的活动，包括著名的La Salle Quartet乐队的表演，CCM的爱乐管弦乐队以及各类音乐团体通过现代音乐呈现的巴洛克艺术。
