Community Partners

No matter where you are in the Garden State, we’re here to provide the joy of music for you and your community.

Community Partners is a touring chamber music offering. We meet our audiences where they are – in schools, community centers, healthcare facilities, senior living communities, houses of worship, parks and more. In a typical year, more than 150 Community Partners events throughout the 21 counties bring the power of live music to as many as 30,000 New Jerseyans of all ages.
