Experience a live performance by one of the world's most distinguished chamber music ensembles. The Boston Symphony Chamber Players, the BSO's first-chair string and wind players, visit GBH's Fraser Performance Studio this May 16 at 7:30 pm to perform for a limited in-person audience. The performance will also stream at Classical.org and be available on-demand.
