ANNOUNCING the fourth DCMF ADULT CHAMBER MUSIC Workshop!

june 5-7, 2025

The Denver Chamber Music Festival is thrilled to announce the fourth DCMF Adult Chamber Music Weekend, taking place June 5–7, 2026. Hosted by the Newman Center at the University of Denver, participants will enjoy two full days of immersive chamber music, culminating in a celebratory performance in the glorious Hamilton Recital Hall at the Lamont School of Music.

We welcome nonprofessional musicians- both pre-formed ensembles and individual players- to work closely with world-class artists including Stephanie Cheng, Margaret Dyer Harris, Matthew Zalkind, Alice Yoo, and additional faculty to be announced. Our featured guest master clinician will be András Fejér of the Takács Quartet.

The philosophy of the DCMF Adult Chamber Music Weekend is to foster meaningful connections—to your instrument, your colleagues, and the music itself—while making chamber music as inspiring, engaging, and joyful as possible.
