Chamber Music Maryland at The Octagon

Experience chamber music in one of Washington, DC’s most historic and intimate settings. Chamber Music Maryland’s new Octagon Series brings world-class artists to the heart of the nation’s capital in partnership with The Octagon Museum and the Architects Foundation.

Hear extraordinary music up close in a setting rich with history, then stay after the performance for the opportunity to meet the artists and connect over the evening’s music.

Built in 1801, The Octagon is one of Washington’s architectural treasures. It also holds a remarkable place in American history: After the burning of Washington in 1814, the house served as the temporary White House for President James Madison and First Lady Dolley Madison.

Exceptional artists. An extraordinary setting. A chamber music experience unlike any other.
