You won’t need your passport to enjoy the world-class musicians who take the stage during our Chamber Music Series.
The Series consists of three concerts each season, under the artistic direction of cellist Peter Seidenberg, whose career includes serving as principal cellist in the Century Orchestra of Osaka and playing major concert halls throughout the US, Europe and Asia. He recruits a distinguished cadre of accomplished musicians. Their credits include Carnegie Hall, New York Philharmonic, Avery Fisher Hall, and prominent venues nationally and internationally.
The enlightening programming includes traditional chamber music literature, as well as exciting new commissioned works and premieres. Recent concerts include An Afternoon of Dvořák at the Newington-Cropsey Foundation; Decades, a journey through the last 100 years in music and poetry; and Schubert’s Trout Quintet, paired with the song that inspired it.
Warm, intimate gatherings in unique venues continue to delight music lovers of all ages.
Peter Seidenberg, Artistic Director of Chamber Music
