Community & Family Programs
Our community is our family!
Our partnerships with local organizations, from beloved neighborhood businesses to celebrated educational programs, provides new ways into the music we love every season.
In addition to the annual programs listed below, we have also enjoyed collaborating with the D&R Greenway Land Trust to develop new initiatives in the beautiful nature surrounding us, pairing music with delicacies from The Gingered Peach, Olsson’s Fine Foods, and The Simple Stove, and deepening our ties to the community by working with Labyrinth Books, Meals on Wheels, the Princeton Senior Resource Center, and Princeton’s public schools.
Interested in partnering with us? We’d love to hear from you!
Live Music
Meditation
In partnership with the Princeton University Office of Religious Life, we have developed a series of free events in which you can “Breathe in Music” by experiencing a guided meditation to the playing of an artist on our series. Experience music more viscerally than ever before!

All in the Family
Instill a lifelong love of music in your kids through live chamber music programs that we bring to Richardson Auditorium, including “Orli Shaham’s Bach Yard” for pre-K and early-elementary aged youngsters, and “Meet the Music” with The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center for kids ages six and older. Student tickets are also available for all of our concert offerings.

Events include artist visits to local music programs, and facilitating student attendance at Princeton University Concerts events.
