ABOUT ARKEL CHAMBER CONCERTS

Arkel Chamber Concerts, for thirteen years now a gem of the Toronto classical music scene, presents some of the world's best chamber music in three intimate, unforgettable concerts each season. Co-founders Marie Bérard, Concertmaster of the COC Orchestra, and Winona Zelenka, a lead cellist of the TSO, began their journey as Trio Arkel, and now as Arkel Chamber Concerts have further expanded to present programs of ever more imagination and depth, exploring the world of chamber music from the timeless masterpieces of the classical and romantic periods through to exciting present-day compositions. Guest artists include beloved and internationally acclaimed virtuosos of the classical music world. 

Arkel Chamber Concerts is also dedicated to bringing classical music to young people; we offer greatly discounted tickets to youth, and regularly collaborate with Sistema Toronto, a social development program that offers free ensemble-based music lessons to at-risk children across the city.
