A chamber music concert series presented on Sunday afternoons in a private home in Los Altos Hills, CA. Chamber music, which has been described as “the music of friends,” is a form of classical music that is composed for a small group of instruments—traditionally a group that could fit in a palace chamber or a large room. Guests enjoy a themed concert performed by local professional musicians and singers, followed by an elegant reception.
