Williams Chamber Players

The Williams Chamber Players is a resident chamber ensemble, founded at Williams in 1999. Its purpose is to present concerts for the college and community throughout the academic year. Antecedents of the Williams Chamber Players are The Williams Trio, founded in 1970, and the Group for 20th Century Music, founded in 1989. Repertoire for concerts is drawn from the standard chamber music with special attention to music of the 20th and 21st centuries, and to music by Williams composers. Musicians are normally drawn from the ranks of Artists in Residence, Artist Associates, and other faculty, as well as occasional visiting artists.
