Chamber music was originally written by the world's greatest composers for themselves and their friends. It was often performed in homes or small venues that complemented the intimate nature of the music.

Now, we bring this magical music to our beautiful red rock home, inviting some of the world's foremost performers to bring friends, family and community together with their gift of outstanding musical performances.
