Founded in 1998, Chameleon has
distinguished itself as one of the finest and most versatile
chamber ensembles in Boston. To date, Chameleon has produced
more than 60 concerts, performing nearly 226 different works
by 120 different composers, having earned us our reputation
for innovative programming as well as praise for "
another
evening of smart, zealous music-making by the young and ambitious
Chameleon Arts Ensemble, took its auditors on an amazing journey."
(The Boston Globe). The name Chameleon derives from
this very versatility - a key element of our mission - to
perform a wide range of repertoire, from the Classical to
the most contemporary, from the best-known standards to brand-new
and lesser-known works. This programming stance and the distinctive
thematic concepts that tie the programs together have earned
Chameleon a unique place among Boston's chamber music ensembles
and attracted audiences who love not just contemporary music,
or the standard chamber music repertoire, but who come to
hear a diverse and balanced program of music in a satisfying
and enriching evening.
Artistic Director Deborah Boldin has earned unanimous and
unqualified praise for her inventive and inspired programs.
She brings a vast knowledge of the chamber music repertoire,
a passion and dedication to contemporary music, and a unique
sensibility for the unusual combinations of musical selections
that make up Chameleon's unparalleled programs. The Boston
Globe praised her for "knowing what goes with what
on a program
the Chameleon Arts Ensemble didn't make
a single wrong move." Bay Windows hails "While
interesting music programming abounds in Boston, the creative
energy of the Chameleon Arts Ensemble offers a range in repertoire
that many of the long-established groups should learn from.
Artistic Director Deborah Boldin continues to find a path
of adventure and excitement for her group of impressive musicians."
