International Chamber Artists

Description

ICA, a diverse group of musicians, provides excellence in the arts through live chamber music to underserved local and international communities. ICA performances are a vehicle for educational and charitable outreach.

Committed to live performance that meets a high standard of artistic excellence, ICA musicians make the richness and complexity of chamber music accessible to audiences of all ages and backgrounds. As young musicians, ICA members bring a particular energy to their work. Each is driven by a love of music but also by a commitment to ensuring that chamber music--which has difficulty attracting and maintaining audiences--will be alive and well decades from now. ICA musicians have trained with master teachers who play with the world's great ensembles and orchestras. As leaders of the next generation of concert musicians, ICA artists are committed to Chicago as a place that offers chamber musicians many resources--not the least of these being audiences that are eager to experience top quality performances. Through the marriage of music and philanthropy, ICA is driven by a profound sense of purpose.
