Chamber Music at the Clark

Professor Rogers Brubaker, Artistic Director

An annual series established in 1994, Chamber Music at the Clark presents internationally acclaimed ensembles and soloists in the drawing room of the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library. The series, which usually hosts seven concerts each year, honors the musical passion of William Andrews Clark Jr., an accomplished violinist and founder of the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
