Chamber Music Now! Founded in 2002 by two emerging Philadelphia based composers, CMN is a unique production company that presents an unconventional concert series that has proven to be a compelling and significant part of Philadelphia’s music community. CMN’s annual concert series focuses on new chamber arts that come from a variety of collaborative efforts and unique sources of inspiration. Our multi-disciplinary themed concert productions feature unique repertoire, the premiers of new compositions (Over 30 world premieres in our first five seasons) and pre-concert events that are designed to connect our productions to a large and diverse audience base. Our concert themes are designed to attract a broad range of new listeners and to re-shape the image of chamber music in our community by challenging its conservative perception.
The music samples above are live recordings of ensembles that we have presented over the past five seasons.
