The Sunday Chamber Music series is often where the Fellows of your New World Symphony hone their unique points of view as musicians. Featuring small ensembles, these intimate afternoon performances offer a completely different sound world than a full orchestra concert.
Starting at $10 a concert, a Chamber Music subscription is your ticket to some of the most interesting artists of our time, including:
- Martin Beaver, first violinist of the Tokyo String Quartet
- Jon Manasse, principal clarinetist of the Orchestra of St. Luke’s, American Ballet Theater Orchestra and Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra
- Claire Chase, described by The New York Times as “the most important flutist of our time”
Become a Chamber Music subscriber today to enjoy six glorious Sunday afternoons with Schubert, Saariaho, Barber, Eastman and more.
