MUSIC IN CONTEXT
Established in 2011, Aspect Chamber Music Series was created with the goal of introducing and promoting a novel concert format - Music in Context. After a successful tenure in London, the program relocated in 2016 to NYC where the series continues to introduce audiences to new and intriguing aspects of music.
All of our events combine refined programming and inspiring talks by world-renowned speakers
and musicians, transforming the traditional recital experience into an intimate and thought-provoking blend of performance, speech, and image.
It’s more than a concert…
