New Logo

Blending old and new in a logo
At a winter board meeting, the discussion turned to our new website and whether we should get a new logo, too. The consensus was that this would be a great time for a new logo look.
Our patient designer gave us every variation we requested and we agreed on the violin image and the three-line swoosh, but we could not agree on fonts and kept coming back to our original logo fonts.
The result of a long process is our fresh new logo which nods to the original logo with the fonts and colors. We have several layouts to fit in any setting and the selection committee agrees that the new logo gives us a little spark. Embracing the new logo, we bid a fond farewell to our 2008 logo.

Once he chose the harpsicho [...]
The Harlem Chamber Players String Quartet graced our stage on Oct. 16, 2022 and played two outreach concerts the next day at Woodbury Jr/Sr High School and Rowan College of South Jersey/Deptford. Their music was lively and appreciated by our patrons and students. One of the HS students said the music was not what she expected, but she enjoyed it a lot. Local musicians Lourin Plant and Douglas Mapp added so much to the whole musical experience. Thanks for your energy and musicianship, [...]
In a wonderful coincidence, we have a woman pianist who champions composer Florence Price and has programmed Price and her student Margaret Bonds plus the iconic composer Clara Schumann on March 13 during Women's History Month. To continue the connections, Clara and Robert Schumann were mentors and friends of Brahms, whose music is also on the program. And Chopin (Ballad 3 is on program) was a contemporary of the Schumanns.Here are a few more interesting facts to know. Thank you to our Rowan Mus [...]

Escher Quartet Oct. 18, 2020 The Escher Quartet concert at the Music Barn on Oct. 18 was a resounding success. The musicians stated that this was their first live performance during the pandemic and it felt so good to play for people and see real-time reaction and appreciation. They had just returned from a live-stream event in Massachusetts on Saturday night and the contrast between live-stream and live audience was enormous. The Beethoven and Debussy string quartets brought us back to th [...]
