Dear business owner, patron, potential supporter,

You have the unique opportunity to support the Essex Chamber Music Players in an exciting endeavor by making a donation or/and advertising in our concert program booklet. The Essex Chamber Music Players (ECMP) is devoted to the creation and presentation of new classical music along with great musical treasures of the past.  Our motto is Music for the Twenty-first Century: Treasures of the Past, New Music Premieres. Hearing the best of the music produced in the 17th thru the 21st centuries, as well as the new music being created is an exciting experience

We are important to the Merrimack Valley’s cultural life and our presence helps draw people to the area as well as promote and support the business community. We have been performing at Northern Essex Community College since the spring of 1999, reaching out and connecting with the community. Our concerts have been successful and our audience is growing.

We have five concerts a year and one to two are fundraisers.  We support local artists and composers. We are currently collaborating with the Haverhill Historical Society and the Merrimack Valley Preservation Groupcreating pieces about the Merrimack Valley in our unique project Preserving Local Cultural History Through Music.We perform in the Let’s Embrace Arts and Preservation(LEAP) events. ECMP is partially supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council and Northern Essex Community College.

Our plans include:

  • Expanding our concert performances.
  • Bringing our Preserving Local Cultural History Through Music concerts to public and private schools
  • Continuing our studio-recording projectof local composers’ works
  • Expanding our touring throughout Massachusetts and New England
  • Expanding our donation of tickets to organizations servicing the disadvantaged so people who would not ordinarily attend concerts can experience the thrill of live music.

Your tax-deductible donation or advertisement will help us in the following ways:  

  • Paying musicians for rehearsal and performance time
  • Paying composers a commission for their new works
  • Printing and mailing expenses
