About us
The ACMF was founded in 2016 by bassoonist Rémy Taghavi and double bassist Zachary Hobin. The two sought to create a setting where their instruments, unusual ones for chamber music, could be heard on an equal footing with instruments like the violin and the cello. They have come to find that organizing the festival has given them more than just a place to play - it has planted the roots of a musical and creative community in the heart of Annapolis!
Our Mission
The Annapolis Chamber Music Festival presents innovative concerts in fresh and unexpected ways. Our vision is to inspire shared discovery between artists and audiences, strengthening our connections to music and each other.
our community
The secret to ACMF's musical success is that the convivial atmosphere behind the scenes sparks the energy on stage. The close network of musicians, community members, supporters, and hosts creates an environment that reflects the generous spirit of Annapolis. We hope you’ll join us by attending a concert or becoming a donor.
