Chamber Music Detroit

This time last year, Steve, our artistic director, was planning his epic bike ride from the Garth Newel Music Center in Warm Springs, Virginia, to West Bloomfield, Michigan, before the opening night of Chamber Music Detroit’s 82nd season as a fundraiser for both of these wonderful organizations.

He spent 11 days on his bike, saw beautiful countryside, and built support for chamber music across the country! We hope you enjoy these highlights from his trip.

With unparalleled artistry and enduring vigor, the Juilliard String Quartet continues to inspire audiences around the world.

Founded in 1946 and hailed by The Boston Globe as “the most important American quartet in history,” the ensemble draws on a deep and vital engagement to the classics while embracing the mission of championing new works, a vibrant combination of the familiar and the daring. Each performance of the Juilliard String Quartet is a unique experience, bringing together the four members’ profound understanding, total commitment, and unceasing curiosity in sharing the wonders of the string quartet literature.

We’re thrilled to welcome them back for their 31st appearance with CMDetroit as part of our 2025–26 Season Finale! Join us for an unforgettable evening of extraordinary music as we welcome the Juilliard String Quartet back to Detroit.
