The 43rd Season is Coming Up!!

I’m thrilled to announce another stellar lineup for Chamber Music Sedona’s 43rd season, filled with some of the most exciting musicians of today. Variety is key here – each concert is unique from the next. Our fall recital, Violin of Legend, features Benjamin Beilman and Gloria Chien in a program built around Ben’s Guarneri del Gesù violin, one of the most storied instruments in the world. Our January concert features the Imani Winds, one of the country’s most sought after wind quintets, with the brilliant pianist Michelle Cann in a scintillating program of French, American, and Cuban music. We then have the Junction Trio, a trio of all star soloists, followed by the venerable and exceptional Brentano Quartet. And we end with a special event – An Evening of Music, Movies, and Comedy, featuring yours truly. The title is pretty self-explanatory, it’s going to be a very fun afternoon.
