Solo & Chamber Music Program

Concert Series

The Friday Morning Music Club offers free, classical chamber music concerts from September through June throughout the DC metropolitan area at 15+ venues. These hour-long programs feature a variety of instrumental and vocal ensembles performing an eclectic repertoire ranging from well-known favorites to rarely heard gems across the centuries—including the 21st!

These programs—and the programs on our Composers Series—feature the Club’s Solo and Chamber Performance Members, skilled professional and amateur musicians admitted via FMMC’s audition process. Performance Members may include guest musicians in their performances. Our Student Members who have received awards through FMMC’s local student competitions may perform in FMMC’s student recitals throughout the year. All performance members value this opportunity to volunteer their talents, in keeping with the Club’s public service mission.
