About the Weekend of Chamber Music
When flutist Judith Pearce and a few of her friends set out in rural New York to play a concert just for fun one summer weekend in 1994, they planted a seed that would eventually become a successful non-profit music organization, the Weekend of Chamber Music. After that first performance at the Meat Market in Lake Huntington, the ensemble of professional musicians with world-class performing and teaching careers found themselves traveling throughout Sullivan County every summer, performing more concerts to growing audiences at many unusual venues. Their musical reunions grew into a popular annual event, the WCM Summer Festival, & a few years later, the Artist Coaching Project in area schools. Read more...
