Chamber music is a popular form of classical music written for a small group of instruments which traditionally could be accommodated in a palace chamber. It is defined as music which is performed by a small group of performers, with only one performer to any given part. It does therefore not include solo instrument performances. The word “chamber” is used to signify that this type of music can be performed in a small room, creating an intimate atmosphere.

Chamber Music CDs come in a variety of formats. While the CD remains the most popular, you can also buy a classical CD boxset if you are looking for the complete works of your favourite composer, be it Beethoven, Chopin or Mozart. Another popular form for classical music is complilations which are collections of related music.

Because of its intimate nature, chamber music has been described as “the music of friends.” For more than 200 years, chamber music was played primarily by amateur musicians in their homes, and even today, when most chamber music performance has migrated from the home to the concert hall, there are still many musicians, amateur and professional, who continue to play chamber music for their own pleasure. Playing chamber music requires special skills, both musical and social, which are different from the skills required for playing solo or symphonic works.

The most popular categories of chamber music include String Trio, String Quartets, String Emsemble, String & Piano, Strings & Wind, Woodwind and Brass.
