Now in its 42nd year, the Hudson Chamber Music Series aims to attract internationally renowned musicians to play chamber music in Hudson. We are a non-profit organization of volunteers from the Hudson area. Our annual concert series includes vocal music and music for small instrumental groups and soloists and is intended to attract local audiences. The repertory is varied, running the gamut from the Renaissance through Romantic to contemporary music, with occasional excursions into jazz, gypsy and other styles. Our concerts attract audiences of approximately 80 and until April 2024 took place in a wonderful setting, the hall of St. James Church on Main Road, a venue with impeccable acoustics and an unparalleled view of the Lake of Two Mountains. We are strongly committed to the local community. However, in April, a fire consumed the church and efforts are now underway to rebuild. The hall at St. James Church was not damaged by the fire and it has been available through 2025. We continue to present concerts in this hall.
Our support from the town of Hudson, individuals and local businesses allows us to keep our ticket prices low for all.
