About Us
Bedford Chamber Concerts has for over 20 years presented great music of the baroque, classical and romantic eras, spiced occasionally with music of the twentieth century or new music composed by our Music Director, Anthony Newman.
We plan to present six concerts in the 2024-2025 season. The season will open in October with a program of violin and keyboard sonatas by Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart. The November concerts will feature a pair of quintets by Brahms and Schumann.
Our holiday concert in December will present a collection of works frequently performed at Christmas, including Corelli's Christmas Concerto and Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, along with a bonus performance by our chamber chorus.
We are fortunate to have the young pianist, Albert Cano Smit, join us for a solo recital of Bach in March; his program will be announced in coming months. April will feature trios by Beethoven and Schubert. For our finale, we will present concerts for four by Haydn and Mozart, plus some of Anthony Newman's own works.
We look forward to bringing you a wonderful seasons of chamber music.
