Youthful Chamber Music

Now in its twentieth season, the Chamber Music Program of the New York Youth Symphony has established itself as one of the most well-respected ensemble music training programs in the country. From October through April, mixed ensembles meet weekly for coachings, participate in Chamber Music Day (which includes sight-reading sessions, masterclasses, workshops, and informal performances), take part in educational outreach programs in NYC public and private schools, and present recitals in venues throughout the city. This season the chamber music program welcomes a new director, Lisa Tipton, violinist of the Meridian String Quartet.
