What is Chamber Music?Chamber music is classical music originally intended to be performed in small places (small halls, even home living rooms), by small groups of musicians (usually one to four, though sometimes up to eight). Chamber music ensembles traditionally include duos, the string quartet, piano trio, piano quartet, string trio and wind ensembles. Wellington Chamber Music concerts also include solo piano, singers and early music, with repertoire sourced from the Baroque period to recently commissioned works.
