Item Description

The collaboration dancers and musicians lies at the heart of Chamber Dance Project’s mission, and each are equal creative partners in the rehearsal room and on stage performance. Live music—often including original commissioned scores—are a hallmark of all of the company’s performances.

In our new home of Washington, D.C., we have assembled a quartet of outstanding string musicians, professionals who bring a wealth of talent, experience, and energy to Chamber Dance Project. Season sponsorship helps underwrite their work with us, and we offer opportunities for supporters to become involved in our Music Fund in a very personal way. A donation at the $2,000 level will provide season sponsorship for cellist Lori Barnet.

Barnet is currently a principal of the National Philharmonic, Orchestra 2001 in Philadelphia, and Wolf Trap Opera Orchestra. A much-sought after chamber and orchestral musician and a champion of new and contemporary music, she has been a soloist with major orchestras across the United States; toured in Russia, England, Italy, Denmark, and Cuba; and has recorded on CRI and Orion records. She has been a member of the faculty of The George Washington University Music Department since 1991, where serves as the coordinator for string studies, teaches cello and coaches chamber ensembles and plays in faculty and departmental concerts.  

Chamber Dance Project is honored to have Lori Barnet among our ensemble. Your support of her through our Music Fund will designate you as an artist’s sponsor throughout our season.
