Red Cedar Chamber Music was founded in July 1997 by concert artists Jan Boland and John Dowdall. Its mission is "to perform chamber music with virtuosity, energy, and artistic excellence, enriching broad and diverse local, domestic, and international audiences through concerts and educational activities; to stimulate creative artistic collaborations to reach this goal."
Red Cedar Chamber Music is a self-presenting 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization with a core ensemble that participates in all Red Cedar performances.
