Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Ottawa Chamberfest Full time

ORGANISATION DESCRIPTION

Ottawa Chamberfest aspires to change lives through music by presenting chamber music in an annual summer festival, a concert series, and community engagement and arts education activities. Under the artistic leadership of violinist Carissa Klopoushak, Ottawa Chamberfest is committed to artistic excellence, innovation in programming, community engagement, and inclusion.


The overall artistic strategy is built around a diverse multi-stream approach that embraces music from the 1400s to today, interdisciplinary works, and collaborations.

It focuses on driving the art of the small ensemble forward, and serving the widest possible community.

Ottawa Chamberfest has been presenting a music festival in the heart of the National Capital for almost 30 years.

Every summer, Ottawa's Carleton Dominion-Chalmers Centre, museums, galleries, theatres and heritage sites play host to indoor and outdoor performances by artists from around the world for two weeks.

As the festival has grown, so has the demand for chamber music. In response to this demand, a concert series throughout the fall, winter, and spring was created in 2000.

It has enabled the organisation to engage with a wider community of artists and audience members, and provided another outlet to share music of the highest quality.


The organisation has also invested heavily in community engagement and education events that bring music to schools, care facilities, and the streets.

It includes important community-building initiatives and investment in mentorship opportunities for up-and-coming artists.
