Music Programs

The 2012–13 Chamber Music at the Clark season concludes with our sold-out concert by the Pacifica Quartet on April 21, 2013. Unfortunately, no more tickets are available for this year's season.

To receive information about our 2013–14 season, which starts in the fall, please sign up for our email list here. Once you are on our email list you will be the first to know when tickets become available for our future concerts.

We also run a series of free, lunchtime, chamber music concerts on the UCLA campus during the summer, the Henry J. Bruman Summer Chamber Music Festival. Details about this series' summer 2013 concerts will be posted on our calendar page soon and distributed via our email list.

The chamber music programs offered by the Center and the Clark are rapidly establishing a reputation for enhancing the cultural life of the community. At the core of these programs is Chamber Music at the Clark, a series established in 1994 with the support of a pilot grant from the Ahmanson Foundation of Los Angeles. Financial support for the series continues to grow, and several concerts take place at the Clark each year featuring internationally acclaimed chamber ensembles. The on-campus Henry J. Bruman Summer Chamber Music Festival, an existing series for which the Center assumed responsibility in the summer of 1998, has the additional aim of introducing new audiences to chamber music. Finally, Clark Recitals, developed since spring 2000, is the newest series.

Chamber Music at the Clark is made possible by the generous support of the Ahmanson Foundation, Catherine Benkaim, the Edmund D. Edelman Foundation for Music and the Performing Arts, Mary and Donald Eversoll, Elizabeth and Gunter Herman, and Joyce Perry.

All music programs for the current year can be viewed on our calendar.

The UCLA Newsroom commissioned the making of a video about concerts at the Clark. The video features beautiful footage of the library, and of the Ying Quartet's visit to the Clark in 2012, as well appearances by some Clark regulars. Here is the video on YouTube:
