Chamber Music Milwaukee – Music in the Times of War

November 13 @ 7:30 pm9:30 pm
Free
A violin is displayed in the center, surrounded by sepia-toned vintage photographs of people, some holding violins or in group settings.

Chamber Music Milwaukee presents a concert with the theme of music in times of war, including music of the Holocaust. As part of this event, Jamie Hofman, Director of UWM String Academy, will perform on one of the violins from Violins of Hope. The concert will be preceded by a talk by Jewish educator Jody Hirsh, who will provide historical context about the violin being featured in the concert.

Founded in 2001 and based at UWM, Chamber Music Milwaukee has collaborated with many of today’s most exciting and important performers and composers. The series presents thematic programming that introduces innovative concert formats while exploring a broad diversity of repertoire. Featuring UWM music faculty and guest artists, the season typically presents five unique concerts. Join us as we engage with artists in imaginative and interactive experiences through ensemble performances and education.
