Chamber Music Week 2025 brings together top local and international artists and ensembles for a week-long celebration of chamber music, which culminates in our closing gala!
Over the course of the week, we have had chamber masterclasses and performances by acclaimed violist Su Zhen, Spectra Ensemble, tenor Mark Tucker, violinist Zhang Jia, pianist Daniel de Borah, YST contemporary music ensemble OpusNovus, YST Ensemble-in-Residence Red Dot Baroque, and the YST Voice and Composition Departments. The festival also featured YST’s annual contemporary music festival Sounding Now and Song Festival: The Voices of England & France — expanding the chamber music experience beyond classical and instrumental traditions.
Don’t miss this invaluable opportunity to learn from acclaimed chamber musicians, while fully immersing in the world of chamber music!
