Reception follows after the concert

The New Asia Chamber Music Society is celebrating its Sixth Annual Gala on Friday, November 19, 2021, at the Merkin Hall at Kaufman Music Center. This year, we are combining our two most celebrated events, our annual concert and annual benefit gala, into one event. Not only are we observing the end of Autumn, but we are also celebrating post-pandemic welcoming everyone back to our concert programs and other events.

The annual gala concert is the organization’s most significant and important fundraising event. Funds raised support NACMS to continue our mission in bringing exceptional performances of chamber music repertoire, and support programs like the Young Artists Chamber Music Program, Between the Bars, NACMS Originals, and Salon Concerts. 

Join us for a night of music appreciation, memories from our special speakers, and a live concert. The night consists of live performances, pledges, and reception to follow. Tickets are available for your purchase, and we encourage all to join the feast. If you cannot make it, you may make a donation as well to support NACMS.

We hope you will join us on November 19th for our celebratory annual concert!
