Walden Chamber Players is comprised of twelve dynamic artists in various combinations of string, piano, and wind ensembles. The wide variety of instrumental groupings possible with this ensemble allows for great versatility and eclectic programming, a hallmark of the Walden Chamber Players. Members of the ensemble are versatile chamber artists and soloists who often perform at leading festivals throughout the United States and abroad. They are also sought-after teachers and lecturers and serve on the faculty of some of the country's premier musical teaching institutions, such as the New England Conservatory of Music, University of Michigan, Boston University, Longy School of Music and the Boston Conservatory.
Outreach to young audiences and under-served populations is central to the mission of the Walden Chamber Players. Currently Walden serves as the ensemble-in-residence at Concord Academy in Concord, MA, and at the Mass. Academy of Math and Science in Worcester, MA. The Walden Chamber Players is recognized nationally for its commitment to combining concert-performances with outreach in the local communities across the United States. Walden is excited to launch its newest initiative: Chamber Music ACK, a collaboration between Walden Chamber Players and the Nantucket Public Schools, in Winter 2012.
This year Walden will hold its eigth annual Young Artist Competition, open to young musicians from Massachuetts. The Walden Chamber Players Young Artist Competition is designed to promote and encourage young musicians interested in the performance and study of chamber music. The winner performs in a public concert with the Walden Chamber Players and receives a cash prize. This competition is unique to the Walden Chamber Players in that it features a strong educational component in addition to the more standard contest format.
