Chamber Music Hamilton was established in the year 2000 by Zdenek and Lida Konicek, continuing a long tradition of bringing some of the world’s best chamber music ensembles to Hamilton. Before that, many well known chamber groups had performed in the Hamilton home of Helen Cappadocia and her late husband, Professor Ezio Cappadocia. With the founding of Chamber Music Hamilton the concerts moved to the Recital Hall of the Hamilton Conservatory for the Arts on James St. South in Hamilton.
After the Koniceks' return to the Czech Republic in 2005, Sabatino Vacca became the Artistic Director, a position he held until the spring of 2009. Since that time the Artistic Directors have been Abigail (Abby) Richardson-Schulte and Michael Schulte, who have signed up the distinguished ensembles making up the 2011-2012 concert season.
A feature of our concerts enjoyed by many is the opportunity to mix with the performers and members of the audience after the concert while enjoying wine and cheese, coffee, fruit and sandwiches. The musicians often say how much they enjoy these occasions.
Chamber Music Hamilton is grateful to the Ontario Arts Council and the City of Hamilton for generous financial support. It is also grateful to many individual donors whose contributions help to make the ticket prices affordable.
