Welcome to the H&S Chamber Groups program!
What is Chamber music? Chamber music is art music that is composed for a small group of musicians (such as a group with one violinist, violist, and cellist) written with a unique interplay of parts. Traditionally, chamber groups performed in a palace chamber, a residential parlor, or any small room.
Interested students can register to be placed in a group with other musicians. Duos, trios, quartets, and quintets are all welcome. Fill out the form below to get connected with a group.
Once assigned to a chamber group, each group will choose a rehearsal time that works for all members and a coach.
A $10 fee is added to provide sheet music for the groups.
