In making the announcement CCMs Board of Directors expressed its deep gratitude to the CCM ensemble artists for 28 years of glorious music making and to its loyal base of subscribers and funders for their long standing support of chamber music in Chicago. CCM Board Chair Michael Woolever commented that While CCM filled an important niche in Chicagos musical scene for many years numerous factors have made it more and more difficult for CCM to avoid operational deficits in recent years and CCM leadership decided to take a prudent approach and suspend artistic operations while we continue to be solvent. CCM ensemble member and former CoArtistic Director Charles Geyer added It has been a pleasure and privilege to be a part of CCM for 17 years and perform with this complement of excellent musicians.
