Connie Chamber Collective aims to foster and champion chamber music for the classical guitar, and seek to facilitate making connections between guitar players and creatives. We encourage all performers, particularly those who have not felt welcome or safe in traditional settings, to join us as a competitor or as someone seeking to meet like-minded players. We encourage and prioritise the compositions of women and female identifying composers.
