1Title:  Cleveland Chamber Music Society Records     
 Creator:  Cleveland Chamber Music Society 
 Dates:  1950-1997 
 Abstract:  The Cleveland Chamber Music Society was founded in 1949 by a small group of individuals in order to sponsor chamber music concerts of high quality by world class musicians in the Greater Cleveland, Ohio, area. Concerts took place at a number of venues, many in the University Circle area, and also at the Fairmount Temple Auditorium, Beachwood, Ohio. In 1953, the Society established a school concert program, bringing local chamber music ensembles to schools throughout the Greater Cleveland, Ohio, area. In 1969, the Society became affiliated with the national program, Young Audiences Inc., whose goals were also to educate young students in the field of chamber music. The society continued to support these concerts when Young Audiences became an independent organization in 1978. Another mission of the Society was to commission the writing and performing of new compositions by local Cleveland composers, included Arthur Shepherd, Normand Lockwood, Walter Aschaffenburg, Starling Cumberworth, and Gerald R. Humel. The collection consists of articles of incorporation, code of regulations, minutes, correspondence, histories, reports, programs, contracts, financial statements, lists, publicity materials, news releases, newspaper clippings, tax documents, schedules, brochures, and manuscript music.
