ChamberQUEER
ChamberQUEER was founded in 2018 by Jules Biber, Danielle Buonaiuto, Brian Mummert, and Andrew Yee, with a mission to program queer artists and composers; highlight historically under-represented queer figures in classical music; and provide an inclusive and intersectional space in classical music for artists and audience alike. ChamberQUEER launched with a workshop performance at Branded Saloon, in Brooklyn, NY, in February 2019. Its first major event was ChamberQUEER 2019, a three-day festival in Brooklyn, NY during Pride Month. The second annual festival was cancelled due to COVID-19. Instead, ChamberQUEER hosted ChamberQUEERantine, a sixteen-day broadcast event of over 50 queer artists. In addition to the flagship concert series, held annually in Brooklyn in June during Pride, ChamberQUEER hosts community events such as reading parties and house concerts, and will soon expand to provide education and mentorship to emerging queer performers and composers.
