Chamberosity began its existence as the Long Island Chamber Players in the early 1990s, when Linda Sinanian, Jeffrey Forden and Christine Doré started playing chamber music together. Chamberosity was quickly recognized for the joy-giving communicative quality of its playing. The critically acclaimed trio has been the ensemble-in-residence at the Stony Brook Summer Music Festival, the Music At Greenlawn concert series and the Siena Spirituality Center in the Hamptons. Over the years, Chamberosity has organized travel around the globe for students of Protégé International, a traveling summer music festival based on the “work- hard- play –hard- while –creating- lifelong -memories” mantra by which the group’s members have always lived. Chamberosity is dedicated to the vast and rich chamber music repertoire. The ensemble frequently expands its roster with guest artists, which creates a unique instrumental flexibility. This allows the group to present varied and diverse chamber music programs, from standard repertoire to often overlooked and rarely performed treasures. Chamberosity has commissioned two trios, one from Eric Ewazen and one from Peter Winkler which will be performed as part of the evenings program.

Tickets: $75 in advance / $95 at the door
