Season Listing:
FRIENDS OF CHAMBER MUSIC 2025/2026 SEASON – Subscriptions and Tickets
Friends of Chamber Music bring the world’s best chamber music to Vancouver. Welcome to our 2026/2027 season, offering you a series of outstanding concerts that feature internationally renowned artists playing extraordinary chamber music. Join our enthusiastic and devoted audience members – the Friends in Friends of Chamber Music. We started presenting top tier chamber music experiences in Vancouver in 1948 – 78 seasons ago – and the passion and excitement of live music continues to grow. As part of the community of Friends, you can enjoy gorgeous music played exquisitely by both new and returning chamber music groups. This season, we welcome back returning favourites the Takács and Escher String Quartets, as well as the Notos and Fauré Piano Quartets, and the Busch Piano Trio. Our audiences gave enthusiastic ovations to each of these groups when they played here before.
We also look forward to hearing the dynamic Terra and Dudok String Quartets, as well as the Sitkovetsky Piano Trio, each playing for Friends for the first time. Enjoy the variety, with four string quartets, two piano quartets, and two piano trios this season.
