Our closing concert is an exploration of our space, Carleton Dominion Chalmers, its gorgeous round dome, the celestial lighting and majesty of these sky-reaching pillars, and by a different sort of marriage with both this beautiful space, and the world around us in light of COVID-19. We have continued to connect with our Chamberfest community throughout this pandemic, sharing music, this venue, and the whole concert experience in such a different way, through the screen to people’s living rooms…while this space is, unusually, and profoundly, empty. I had the thought that chamber music was originally written for people’s homes, for their living rooms, and that we had come full circle, sharing live music back in that space again.  Carleton Dominion Chalmers is our home, our living room. This concert invites audiences to come on in as we explore themes of earth, the moon, and any and all spheres.
