Chamber Music Churchtown

What started as a vision for cellist Wendy Sutter and a pair of concerts last year has grown into a festival in Hudson: Chamber Music Churchtown is back for five concerts this season, beginning next Saturday, August 29. Violinists Todd Phillips and Catherine Cho return this season, performing some of the cornerstone works in the chamber music repertoire with friends and colleagues. We spoke with them about the venue— the Round Barn at Churchtown Dairy— and the programs.

Rob Brown comes from a musical family. His mother played piano and taught in this area for nearly 30 years. One uncle is a composer and brass player, one aunt is a professional accompanist and recitalist. And his grandfather had a record collection to rival WMHT’s. He started at WMHT as an intern in 1996. His first job was to go through the stacks of vinyl to make sure they were filed properly. He’s now the Music Director and is thrilled to continue in the “family business” and share more of our very favorite classical music from 1-4 every weekday and 11-3 on Sundays.
