South Coast Chamber Music Series (SCCMS) Artistic Director Janice Weber is pleased to announce the full program for the 2019-2020 season. This season, musicians from the New Bedford Symphony Orchestra (NBSO) will perform in all of the chamber concerts, bringing their unique artistry and energy to the popular series.
On September 28 & 29, NBSO winds deliver “Wind City,” a bright, sophisticated, and sassy season opener. Next up, two enormous piano quintets probe the boundaries of Romantic in “Take Five” on November 23 & 24. We begin the new year on January 25 & 26with “Beethoven CCL,” a celebration of Beethoven’s 250th birthday. In “Three’s A Crowd” on March 28 & 29, two Baroque solos preface a staggering demonstration of trio power. The Chamber Series season closes with “Hopscotch” on May 16 & 17, a springtime bounce in the garden of musical delights.

The SCCMS was formed to present high-quality classical chamber music for the communities of Southeastern Massachusetts. SCCMS held its first subscription series concert on October 20, 2001. We joined forces with the NBSO in 2014, giving both organizations an opportunity to expand in all directions – more concerts, more musicians, and more music.
