Annual Fundraiser

Musical Chairs

Our 31st annual fundraiser is an informal yet festive evening of chamber music, gourmet desserts, and a silent auction of works by area artists and other unique items. The featured guest ensemble is joined by prominent local musicians for impromptu readings of favorite works.

Talented area musicians may sit in with or replace one member of the guest ensemble to play a movement of their choice. The event is great fun and a wonderful opportunity to perform as a member of a professional group in front of a supportive and uncritical audience. 

For the audience, it is a thrilling and intimate experience to enjoy chamber music in the living room at an area home among friends and chamber music lovers.
