Celebrating 50 Years of Making Music Together

Since 1975, the Stein Chamber Music Festival has welcomed students, amateurs, and professionals who share a love for playing music together. The Festival honors the memory of Joseph and Lise Stein, long-time Belmont residents who opened their home for joyous music-making several nights a week. Their contagious enthusiasm for chamber music continues to inspire our community, and their love of the genre lives on in this spectacular evening.

The Steins’ living room was set up with scores, stands, and pianos – always ready for music! We’ll be transforming the concert hall into our own “living room” to inspire the comfort and encouragement of an evening of chamber music at the Steins’ house. We hope you will create wonderful memories
celebrating beautiful music in this welcoming setting.

The Stein Chamber Music Festival welcomes players of all ages and abilities, performing in groups of two or more players, from beginning students to amateurs and professionals. Each year the Festival is exciting, enjoyable, and always exceptional. We have had a wonderful contingent of younger performers in the past, and we encourage more to join in this year as well.
