Twenty-Five Years of Music and Connection

This summer, Intermezzo Chamber Music Series celebrates its Silver Anniversary with five programs built around a single idea: that music is most alive when it is most human. Our 2026 season takes inspiration from Robert and Clara Schumann - two composers, one household, a lifetime of shared devotion - and from the musicians joining us this summer, many of whom bring long histories of collaboration and mutual trust to the stage. Some have performed together for decades. The season’s theme runs through the roster as much as the repertoire. Five Monday evenings. Five programs spanning Chopin, Schubert, Brahms, Debussy, Ravel, and the Schumanns themselves. We hope you’ll join us.

Dr. Vedrana Subotić, Music Director & Co-Founder

Bold Programming.
Brilliant Performances.

The Intermezzo Chamber Music Series provides an intimate classical music experience during the Summer and Fall in the heart of Salt Lake City. The series features superb professional performers, bold programming interweaving the familiar, the novel and the obscure; commissioned works by living composers, as well as a surprise here and there.
