Upcoming 2023-2024 Program

Our new season opens with Ensemble Aubade (Peter H. Bloom, flute; Francis Grimes, viola; and Steven Sussman, piano), a distinguished chamber group from Boston. The acclaimed trio will provide an exhilarating tour of chamber music by European and American masters, and they have enthralled audiences across the United States with their virtuosity, versatility, and electrifying performances.

They’ve been praised for “intensity, imagination, skill, and finesse” (St. Lawrence University, New York) and their music has been called “dynamic, expressive, richly colored and affecting” (Loretto Community, Kentucky).

The Georgetown Quintet

This woodwind quintet has been nominated for a Washington Area Music Award as Best Chamber Ensemble of 2009, they have entertained audiences at Strathmore Mansion,  the Old Town Hall of Fairfax, The John F. Kennedy Center for the Arts, and Black Rock Center in Germantown, MD. and
individual artists of The Georgetown Quintet have performed with the National Symphony Orchestra, the Baltimore Symphony, the Williamsburg Symphony, the National Philharmonic Orchestra, and R&B icon Ray Charles. 

The Atlas String Quartet, based at Frostburg State University, includes the concertmaster of the U.S. Marine Band’s White House Chamber Orchestra, a member of the National Symphony Orchestra and faculty of Frostburg State. In addition to formal concerts, they focus on music education throughout the mid-Atlantic area.

To close our season we are pleased to bring back Les Délices. the early music group who played for us in 2014. They have built a national reputation as a leader in the field of early music and have been featured on WCPN, WCLV and WKSU in Ohio, WQXR in New York, NPR’s syndicated Harmonia and Sunday Baroque, and had their debut CD featured as part of the Audio-guide for a special exhibit at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.
