Since 2017 they have been members of the Bay Area Music Consortium (BAMC), presenting concerts with their partners, Chamber Music Marin (Mill Valley) and Gold Coast Chamber Players (GCCP).
After 35 seasons GCCP closed their doors last spring, leaving a chamber music void in the Lamorinda area. BCP has enjoyed collaborating with GCCP and is looking forward to presenting three chamber music concerts at the Lafayette Library, GCCP's former venue. The first concert will be the Alexander String Quartet in a program of Haydn, Ravel, and Schoenberg, on Oct. 28. Following that will be the Black Oak Ensemble, a string trio, presenting music by composers who lost their lives in the Holocaust, on Jan. 27. Their final concert of the season features the Naumburg Prize -winning Telegraph Quartet on May 4. All concerts are Saturday evenings at 7:30 p.m., in the time slot previously occupied by the GCCP concert series.
