Hudson Valley Chamber Music Circle

The Hudson Valley Chamber Music Circle (HVCMC) was established in 1950, and in 1979, it formed a formal partnership as an independent program affiliated with Bard College.
 
Since then, the audience has expanded to include music lovers from all over the Hudson Valley, as well as neighboring states. In 2000, Jaime Laredo and Sharon Robinson, both distinguished musicians, became Artistic Directors for the Circle and have maintained its early reputation for showcasing the finest performances of chamber music works from a wide-ranging repertory.
 
HVCMC’s signature event is the June Concert Series—three early-summer Saturday evening performances held in Bard’s beautiful and acoustically exceptional Olin Hall featuring internationally acclaimed musicians.
