The annual Chamber Music Festivals in Rackham Auditorium, under the auspices of the University Musical Society, began in January 1941 with a total of 861 patrons for the threeconcert series. This was the first organized and continuous series of chamber music concerts in Ann Arbor, and has since recorded over seventythousand admissions.
In the autumn of 1962, the annual Chamber Dance Festival (of three events) was inaugurated to complement the winter Festival. In 1963 the first Chamber Arts Series, of seven concerts distributed throughout the season, was established, and soon drew capacity audiences--this season completely sold out.
The composite of these presentations includes a wide variety of international performing groups--vocal, instrumental, and dance--presenting a wealth of repertoire. The literature listed herein, and so well performed over the years, has brought the support and has sustained the interest of a cultured public. The Society is encouraged to further broaden the scope of its presentations in accordance with its credo--Ars Longa Vita Brevis!
