On Saturday, March at 8pm, the American Chamber Players will return to Dumbarton Concerts with a program reflective of Paris in the 20s. Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Picasso, Gris, Ravel, Faure, Isadora Duncan…it was all happening in Paris in the 20’s where a tremendous surge of creative activity converged to confound and revitalize a world shaken by the Great War. Join us as we summon the spirit of the “lost generation” of innovative young artists who flocked to Paris in the 20’s.

Hailed by The New York Times for ”offering a warm, seductively luxurious sound and an impressive precision and unity of purpose,” the American Chamber Players have established their place among today's most exciting and innovative chamber music ensembles. Performing this concert will be Sara Stern (flute), Joanna Maurer (violin), Miles Hoffman (viola), Aleberto Parrini (cello) and Anna Stoytcheva (piano). Joining them for this special performance will be Sirius/XMs Martin Goldsmith and renown Duncan dancer Ingrid Zimmer, with pianist Carlos Rodriguez.
