Join the OSFL Chamber Music Society
The Musicians' Choice Chamber Music Series is supported by individual donors like you who make up the OSFL Chamber Music Society. These special donors make it possible for audiences to meet the OSFL musicians up close, hear them perform their favorite chamber music pieces. The musicians give verbal program notes to share their passion and knowledge about the music to a smaller audience in a more intimate setting. Many of the OSFL musicians come from far away to perform with the OSFL under the baton of Maestro Toshiyuki Shimada. These chamber music concerts are not conducted and give the musicians a stronger connection to the local community.
Make your donation today and note the OSFL Chamber Music Society in the memo. Contact the OSFL office for more information.
