Providence Chamber Music Series

Events are free and open to the public.

A brief history: This series began informally in 1978 as Symphony musicians sought opportunities to perform the great chamber music works for members of the community who share this passion. In 1982, Providence United Methodist Church’s Music Director David Stoke offered us the use of their sanctuary for these performances. Since 1995, Lori Tiberio has been the Artistic Director for the series, which offers chamber music performances by CSO musicians and their friends, as well as choral concerts by the PUMC Choir.
