Ritz Chamber Players
The nation’s first chamber music ensemble series, comprised solely of accomplished musicians spanning the African diaspora, brings a fresh, new energy to the classical music genre. As the Vision of founder and artistic director Terrance Patterson, the Ritz Chamber Players include some of the most notable and accomplished musicians of our time. To hear the Ritz Chamber Players perform is to hear history come to life. From Bach, Beethoven, Mendelssohn and Tchaikovsky to today’s leading black composers, Singleton, Walker, Perkinson and Bonds, the Ritz Chamber Players are creating a revolution in the classical music scene.
The Ritz Chamber Players made their triumphant sold-out Carnegie Hall Debut in June 2004, with critics proclaiming the group’s performance “extraordinary” and “vital and fresh.” With their international charm and masterful interpretation, the Ritz Chamber Players will make classical music lovers of us all.
