Support Us
why Support us
As an arts organisation ticket sales only cover a fraction of our costs. In fact, this season’s ticket sales only covered 32% of our costs. That is why we depend on generous supporters like you. The Chamber Music Circle Paris is an association loi 1901 which means that your donation is 66% tax deductible.
By donating to us, you are investing in sustaining the CMC for the upcoming season. It also permits us to develop for future seasons in terms of repertoire and future social outreach projects. Your donation allows us to pay a proper wage to hard-working musicians and ensures that we present the best musicians and the finest chamber music. It also allows us to meet our social outreach initiative of performing in hospitals, nursing homes and retirement homes for those who otherwise would not have the chance to experience great art because of mobility or health concerns. These are just a few of the ways that your generous support makes a huge impact on our association, the arts community and the larger community.

What it means to us
Sustainability
Your donation sustains us financially throughout the season. This means we can continue to present to you great chamber music by talented musicians with informative programs and interesting talks for the upcoming season.
Development
Your donation helps us to develop the CMC past the current season. It helps us to plan for years to come in terms of repertoire and artistic endeavours and helps us expand what we are able to do in terms of social outreach for the community.
Musicians
Musicians are the heart of the CMC. Without talented musicians we could not present quality chamber music to you. Your donation helps us pay hardworking musicians a decent wage for the passion, excitement and beauty that they bring to each CMC event.
Social Outreach
Your donation allows us to share what we do with the larger community by performing for those who otherwise would not be able to experience our great art because of health or mobility concerns. As well, it funds our initiative to present educational concerts to area schools as a way of expanding our young people’s musical knowledge and appreciation.
Social outreach
The Chamber Music Circle Paris believes in giving back to its community. That’s why next season we will begin a social outreach program that brings our music to people that otherwise wouldn’t be able to access it. We plan to offer each of our programs to area hospitals, nursing homes or retirement homes. Many of these residents are unable to attend concerts because of health or mobility issues. This is unfortunate because music is one of the great joys of life and has been proven to help patients who are suffering from illnesses. Of course we will offer these concerts for free to these residents, but it is not without costs for us. With your generous help, we can make this happen together.

This Season’s donors
The Chamber Music Circle Paris is generously supported by people like you. We would like to offer a huge thanks to the donors who have made this season possible. Without them, we would not be able to do what we do.
