In addition to being its namesake, Franz Kneisel’s passion for chamber music is the heart and soul of Kneisel Hall.
Kneisel Hall offers three distinct programs for music students, young professional artists, and adult life-long learners.
Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival returns in 2023 with the best of chamber music. Join us from June 30 to August 27, 2023. We look forward to sharing a full slate of Friday and Sunday concerts, Open Rehearsals, Masterclasses, and the ever popular Young Artist Concert series.

Ms. Krosnick’s recent projects have included the Boston Beethoven Cycle, a series she curated with her colleague Ari Isaacman-Beck at the Pucker Gallery in Boston, which featured a chronological journey of the complete Beethoven string quartets, with contemporary works interspersed. She has presented cello and piano recitals with colleagues Qing Jiang, Daniel Walden, Lee Dionne, and Emely Phelps, and given recent performances of works by Dorothy Rudd Moore, Lei Liang, Jeffrey Mumford, Ralph Shapey, Elliott Carter, Charles Wuorinen, Roger Sessions, Donald Martino, and Sofia Gubaidulina. Upcoming premieres will include new works written for her by Richard Wernick, Aaron Wolff, Luke Hsu, and Jeffrey Mumford.
Krosnick – who was founding member and the cellist of Trio Cleonice from 2008 to 2016 – is now the cellist of the Cassatt Quartet, with whom she specializes in both standard repertoire and a vast range of contemporary music – including dozens of premieres, commissions, and premiere recordings, with a special focus on the music of women and other composers whose backgrounds are traditionally underrepresented on classical music stages. Krosnick teaches at Kneisel Hall Chamber Music School and Festival.
