The Chamber Music Society of Logan (CMSL) was established in 1981 by a group of local chamber music enthusiasts. Since then, it has presented over 200 concerts featuring more than 135 ensembles. During 2020-22, CMSL provided sixteen virtual concerts featuring artists from Lincoln Center.
In 2006, CMSL was honored with Chamber Music America’s annual CMAcclaim Award. This prestigious national award is presented to a chamber musician, ensemble, or organization for achievements in chamber music that have had significant impact on a community at the local or regional level. The award celebrates diversity of musical styles and genres, race, and gender, types of audience served, and geographic location.
CMSL promotes musicianship of the highest caliber, representing traditional chamber music of the past and contemporary works of recent and living composers.
