Chamber Music Listening Club

Like a book club, but for Chamber Music

Join your fellow CPM chamber music devotees to explore more deeply some of the great works on our 2021-22 season.  We will gather to share, listen and learn through focused listening and friendly conversation.

The first three meetings will focus on repertoire from our upcoming season.  The meetings will start with a complete listening of each work at 7:30, then the discussions start at around 8:00.  Feel free to join at any time.  Before each meeting, a listening guide will be posted below, with background information on the selected piece, listening questions and suggested recordings.  The discussions will be hosted by Artistic Director, Dean O’Brien, but we encourage all to participate and share your ideas.  The first meeting on November 8 will be online (hosted by CrowdCast), but we hope to eventually meet in-person.


To attend the online event, you must RSVP to Calgary Pro Musica ([email protected]). The event will be hosted by CrowdCast and you will be sent the link and password.
