Experience the Best in Classical Music

World-Class Chamber Music in a Welcoming Environment, Right Here in Southern New Jersey

The West Jersey Chamber Music Society has been bringing affordable, classical music performances to audiences in Southern New Jersey for 40 years. Our professional musicians – orchestra and choir – bring their amazing skills and sense of style to the works of leading composers from the U.S. and Europe.

We offer special perks for Season ticket holders, and children are always welcome to attend free of charge.

What people are saying…

Here’s what our happy audience members say about some of our recent concerts:
