CHAMBER MUSIC PITTSBURGH GRATEFULLY ACKNOWLEDGES THE

GENEROUS SUPPORT OF OUR MAINSTAGE SEASON SPONSORS

The health and safety of our guests, performers, and staff are of the highest priority.

All 2020-2021 performances are anticipated to occur in Pittsburgh, and all artists are anticipated to appear in-person.

A new seating plan is in place, which will provide a measure of safety for the public while allowing couples and groups to sit safely near each other. We hope to allow subscribers to choose their favorite seats again in the 2021-2022 season.

When purchasing your subscription, you will be given the choice of an in-person ticket or a virtual ticket for each event. A virtual ticket will provide you with a DVD-quality weblink video or DVD following the performance.

Should a health concern require a performance to occur without an audience, a video weblink or DVD will be provided to all ticket holders following the scheduled date of the performance.
