Since 1982, Seattle Chamber Music Society (SCMS) has been a cornerstone of Seattle’s classical music scene, presenting world-class performances and making high-quality chamber music accessible to all. Attracting renowned musicians from around the world, SCMS continues to innovate, launching its Virtual Concert Hall in 2020 to bring performances online. Today, audiences can experience extraordinary music year-round through the Summer and Winter Festivals, the Signature Series, Crescendo Concerts in Seattle’s most stunning homes, and Concerts at the Center. Whether in the concert hall or from the comfort of home, SCMS delivers intimate, world-class performances that captivate both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

This past season, Seattle Chamber Music Society (SCMS) expanded its reach, bringing world-class chamber music beyond traditional concert halls and into the heart of the community. As one of the leading chamber music organizations, we continue to grow in both size and impact, making classical music more accessible than ever. Through our Academy for Chamber Music, live performances in elementary schools, and enriching programs in retirement communities, we inspire the next generation of musicians and music lovers. From concerts in hospitals and Azure Family Concerts to outdoor performances in Seattle parks and mobile “concerts on wheels,” SCMS remains dedicated to sharing the transformative power of chamber music.
