Kaufman Music Center

At Kaufman Music Center’s Lucy Moses School, instrumentalists of all ages and skill levels can join a chamber ensemble with weekly sessions coached by experienced faculty members. Pre-formed ensembles are also welcome. If you love to play chamber music but can’t fit weekly rehearsals into your schedule, our Chamber Music Associates program is a flexible framework offering amateur musicians the opportunity to drop in and play with professionals, other amateurs, or a mixture of both. All of our chamber music programs include recital opportunities.

Kaufman Music Center is the premier destination for learning and listening to music in New York City. Our performance hall presents today’s most compelling artists, and our schools offer outstanding education in music, dance and theater to people of all ages and experience levels. Merkin Hall, the Center’s intimate performance venue, provides unparalleled access to groundbreaking artists. We cultivate and nurture new generations of artists through Special Music School, New York’s only K-12 public school prioritizing an intensive, immersive and musically focused education without financial barriers, as well as Lucy Moses School, Manhattan’s largest community performing arts school for students of all ages.
