Welcome string, wind and piano players!
CMNC is a nonprofit organization which provides opportunities for musicians to play and enjoy chamber music through workshops which include coaching, master classes and performance opportunities.
We typically hold three weekend workshops each year for intermediate to advanced string, woodwind, and piano players. Workshops take place at colleges and universities in the San Francisco Bay area. CMNC members and non-members are welcome to participate either as individuals or as members of pre-formed groups.
You are invited to become a CMNC member, take part in our workshops, and help support our goals.
Among the benefits of membership in the Chamber Musicians of Northern California are:
- Reduced fees for participation in our chamber music workshop weekends.
- Partial financial aid for members who indicate need.
- An annual Membership Directory, in PDF digital format as of 2020, with musical instrument, city and telephone number for several hundred members. The list is designed to help members find fellow chamber musicians and to set up playing groups.
- The Chamber Musician, the CMNC newsletter, has information about CMNC workshops and articles of interest to chamber musicians.
Your membership in CMNC provides you with opportunities for playing chamber music and keeps you in touch with the world of music around you.
Some language in Privacy Policy and Terms of Use has been added to keep up with developments in the area, effective March 11, 2020.
