Each spring we offer our “Inside Chamber Music” class taught by Hamilton Cheifetz. Aimed at both enthusiastic chamber music beginners and seasoned devotees, this popular class explores chamber music past and present from the perspectives of performers, composers, and listeners alike.
The course includes enlightening and informative classes, live, up-close and personal performances, and a behind the scenes look at chamber music rehearsals and coaching sessions.
