The chamber music concerts in the Close-up Series let you marvel up close at the artistry of musicians of the Concertgebouw Orchestra.
For many years now, musicians of the Concertgebouw Orchestra have been performing their own programmes in the Recital Hall of the Concertgebouw as part of the chamber music Close-up Series. These intimate concerts are organised by the Friends of the Concertgebouw and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.
