The Raleigh Chamber Music Guilde became Chamber Music Raleigh in 2015.
The roots of the Raleigh Chamber Music Guild (RCMG) lie in the efforts of a small group of people who planned a series of three chamber music concerts by North Carolina artists in the spring of 1941. From this beginning the Guild has continued to grow and evolve over the past fifty-plus years, shifting location several times. In addition to featuring North Carolina artists, the Guild has expanded its scope to include nationally and internationally known artists, such as the Juilliard String Quartet, and the Tokyo and Cleveland Quartets. The Guild also offers events for local musicians and composers, including master classes for and performances by young, student musicians, competitions for chamber music composers, and sponsorship of concerts by local musicians. The Guild's activities are funded primarily by member support, with additional contributions from foundations, individual benefactors, and the assistance of North Carolina State University. A trust fund also provides financial support for various Guild programs.
The Raleigh Chamber Music Guild became Chamber Music Raleigh in 2015.
