Thank you, New England! We loved getting to spend time with CMA Members this Sunday, May 25, at New England Conservatory. From illuminating discussion to a brilliant performance, ChamberFest Boston was an event for the books. Thank you to all who participated (Michael Bobbitt of Mass Cultural Council; Tyler Rand of Boston Symphony Orchestra ; Kim Kashkashian of Music for Food) attended, performed Pacifica Quartet, Parker Quartet, Joshua Brown, Pei-Shan Lee), and, of course, helped support the day (Carriage House Violins - of Johnson String Instrument, Clarion Associates Inc & CelloBello) We can't wait to return! 📸: Hilary Scott (fb)

Congratulations to Brooklyn Rider, who marks their 20th anniversary season this month with a new album (Four Elements, out May 23) and a packed touring schedule kicking off in NYC this week. To celebrate the group's milestone, CMA spoke with founding member Colin Jacobsen about their path, their future, and, of course, why they #CelebrateSmall.
