Chamber Music Program

Our Chamber Season was created to involve even more musicians than a full orchestra can. Each fall we split up into instrument choirs to focus on instrument specific technique. We allow an unlimited # of musicians and each group takes concerts all around the city, one retirement home, one in-public concert, and lastly our Chamber Showcase finale!
