CMS Expands to Long Island at Tilles Center
June 2, 2023
The Chamber Music Society is pleased to announce a new residency at the Tilles Center for the Performing Arts at Long Island University Post beginning in the 2023-24 Season.
CMS's residency will highlight diverse artists and repertoires. This three-part concert series will kick off with American Panorama, featuring Copland’s Appalachian Spring, illustrating the United States’ identity as the world’s quintessential melting pot with music unmistakably American in spirit yet diverse in dialect. An Evening with David Finckel and Wu Han, CMS's Artistic Directors, will include selections by Debussy, Bruce Adolphe, Shostakovich, and Dvořák. And finally, spanning from 1797 Vienna to 1933 Paris, String Magic, an all-string program will invite audiences to take a journey through the astounding breadth of chamber music repertoire in just four works.
“We are thrilled to join the Tilles Center’s long-standing tradition of presenting the finest in cultural events to the richly diverse population of Long Island,” share Chamber Music Society artistic directors David Finckel and Wu Han. “Chamber Music Society looks forward to sharing chamber music at the highest level of artistic excellence, including innovative programming and a spectacular array of artists. Our new friends at the Tilles Center will experience Chamber Music Society at its very best, and we cannot wait to begin this exciting venture together.”
