CRESCENT CITY CHAMBER MUSIC FESTIVAL
The Crescent City Chamber Music Festival is in its sixth year anniversary offering FREE public concerts in the New Orleans area. This year the festival will take place from September 30 to October 10, 2021. This year’s Festival is themed “(Over)come Together” and will bring together 21 world-class chamber music artists as well as prominent New Orleans classical musicians.
Music lovers will be treated to performances by Grammy-winner and elite classical guitarist Jason Vieaux, described by NPR as “perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation.” In a different twist for the festival, the Oct. 5 concert at the University of New Orleans Performing Arts Center will feature all local classical musicians.

I am thrilled to be back home in the city that I love, teaching music and also working to grow the Crescent City Chamber Music Festival from right here in New Orleans. ~ Festival Director and native New Orleanian Luke Fleming
