Ottawa Chamber Music Society

CMS Classics

CMS Classics was launched in December 2001 by the Ottawa Chamber Music Society to produce chamber music CD's of the highest calibre. This is achieved by collaborating with top Canadian musicians who perform in acoustically perfect heritage churches in Ottawa and by using the very best sound engineers and producers.

Franz Schubert's String Quintet in C major

"…one of the finest accounts of the C Major Quintet that money can buy."
- Richard Todd, The Ottawa Citizen

Joseph Haydn's The Seven Last Words of Christ

"This is a release no string quartet lover should be without."
- Richard Todd, The Ottawa Citizen

Such precision and care go into producing our CD's that the OCMS arranged to have the police barricade the streets surrounding Christ Church Cathedral in Ottawa when The Seven Last Words of Christ CD was recorded!
