Our Story
Born from a crisis,
built for community
When COVID silenced concert halls in 2020, Christopher Jepson — Solo Cellist of the Sinfonieorchester Basel — saw freelance musicians losing everything. He responded by doing the only thing that made sense: organising concerts. What began as an act of solidarity has grown into one of Basel's most distinctive chamber music series.
"A wonderful initiative — high quality musicians sharing dynamic and diverse programmes."
