Mission & History

Founded in 1998, Chameleon has distinguished itself as one of the finest and most versatile chamber ensembles in Boston. Over the course of our history we have produced nearly 120 concerts, with 350 different works by 190 different composers. We now perform to capacity audiences and have received critical acclaim for our innovative concert programming and artistic philosophy: dynamic musical dialogues, integrating old and new repertoire into unexpected chamber music programs that are themselves works of art. This programming stance and the distinctive thematic concepts that tie the programs together have earned Chameleon a unique place among Boston's chamber music ensembles and attracted audiences who love not just contemporary music, or the standard chamber music repertoire, but who come to hear a diverse and balanced program of music in a satisfying and enriching evening.

Artistic Director Deborah Boldin has earned unanimous and unqualified praise for her inventive and inspired programs. She brings a vast knowledge of the chamber music repertoire, a passion and dedication to contemporary music, and a unique sensibility for the unusual combinations of musical selections that make up Chameleon's unparalleled programs. The Boston Globe praised her for "knowing what goes with what on a program…the Chameleon Arts Ensemble didn't make a single wrong move" and hailed "planning a good chamber music program is an art unto itself, and few in town have mastered it as persuasively as the Chameleon Arts Ensemble.”
