Chamber Music Society on Tour
From Berkeley to Boston – from Miami to Milwaukee – from Seattle to Sioux Falls, the Chamber Music Society performs numerous concerts on tour each year, reaching new audiences and loyal friends well beyond the walls of Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall in New York City. The Chamber Music Society’s touring program has sent Artists of the Society and guests to more than 150 cities across the United States, Canada, Australia, France, and Japan. Touring programs have gone to virtually every major city in the United States, including Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC.
