In addition to being its namesake, Franz Kneisel’s passion for chamber music is the heart and soul of Kneisel Hall.
Kneisel Hall offers two distinct programs for music students and young professional artists.
Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival returns in 2024 with the best of chamber music. Join us from June 28 to August 25, 2024. We look forward to sharing a full slate of Friday and Sunday concerts, Open Rehearsals, Masterclasses, and the ever-popular Young Artist Concert series.
