CHAMBER MUSIC ATHENS 2025 and 2026

Dear Chamber Music Athens community,

Thank you for joining us in May 2024! We had an unforgettable 10 days, and you can relive the programming by browsing the Archive section of this website.

Chamber Music Athens will return for the full festival between May 10-19, 2026! Details will be posted later this year.

In the meanwhile, we are excited to present our first ever performance in Atlanta, on March 21, 2025! We are thrilled to collaborate with the First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta and its outstanding Concerts @ First concert series.

This March, guests artists will again perform alongside UGA musicians in gems of the chamber music repertoire. Guests include Atlanta Symphony Orchestra violinists David Coucheron (concertmaster) and Kenn Wagner as well as First Presbyterian Director of the Arts and Organist, Thomas Bara. UGA faculty performers feature recent additions to the UGA faculty, cellist James Kim (award winner, 2024 Naumburg Competition), saxophonist Brandon Quarles, and pianist Alan Woo, with Chamber Music Athens co-directors Michael Heald (violin) and Liza Stepanova (piano) alongside Elizabeth Knight (mezzo-soprano), D. Ray McClellan (clarinet), Maggie Snyder (viola), and UGA top string students. The program journeys around the world featuring Schumann’s glorious Piano Quintet, Prokofiev Overture on Hebrew Themes, Manuel De Falla El amor brujo, and more.

More information will be posted on this website in the next few weeks. In the meanwhile, you can reserve your ticket HERE. We look forward to seeing you in Atlanta in March!
