In its 68th year of bringing exceptional chamber music to New York's Hudson Valley Clarion Concerts will wrap the 2024-2025 season with its annual fundraising concert on Sunday, 14 June 2025 at 3pm. The concert and post-concert reception will take place in an antique barn at a private residence in Ancramdale, NY (location to be provided to ticket holders). Tickets: Supporter $100; General admission: $75. The concert will be followed by a wine and hors d'oeuvres reception, where the artists and audience can mingle in a relaxed, beautiful setting.

The fundraising concert will feature GRAMMY®-nominated  PUBLIQuartet ("... a respectful acknowledgment of the past and confident step into the future" -New York Times), an ensemble that combines improvisation with composed music, traditional Western classical music, and influences of Africa, South America, blues, gospel and other genres.

Applauded by The Washington Post as “a perfect encapsulation of today’s trends in chamber music,” and by The New Yorker as “independent-minded,” PUBLIQuartet rose on the music scene as winner of the 2013 Concert Artists Guild New Music/New Places award, and in 2019 garnered Chamber Music America’s prestigious Visionary Award for outstanding and innovative approaches to contemporary classical, jazz, and world chamber music. PQ’s genre-bending programs range from newly commissioned pieces to re-imaginations of classical works featuring open-form improvisations that expand the techniques and aesthetic of the traditional string quartet. PUBLIQuartet has held artist residencies at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and National Sawdust, and has performed everywhere from Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center to the Montreal, Newport and Detroit Jazz Festivals.
