About
Stony Brook University’s music department is a home for cutting-edge contemporary music, including performances by Stony Brook’s Contemporary Chamber Players, composers’ concerts, electronic music concerts from Stony Brook Studios and the acclaimed annual Stony Brook Premieres! performances. Hailed by The New York Times as “a small army of musicians who demonstrate consistent accomplishment,” the Contemporary Chamber Players perform many concerts annually, including several in New York City and on tour. The group was founded by renowned performance faculty artist Gilbert Kalish and is currently directed by Eduardo Leandro.

Players from the CCP have been heard in performance with Continuum, New Millennium, Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Aequalis, New Jersey Percussion Ensemble, Earplay, The Guild Trio, Argento, Bang on a Can and many other new music groups.
